For those that are post-op have any of you experienced a B1 Thiamine deficiency? I found out that I am a few weeks ago after the front of my body being numb from my shins to my chest, which started two months ago. I've been taking Thiamine injections for a few weeks now and slowly getting better. It's very frustrating though. Just wanted to see if there was anyone else that has dealt with this and could share their story. Thank you.

I too experienced the numbing sensation in my stomach as well as my shins and legs. My dr checked my labs and I my b1 was low as well. I have been taking b 12 complex Vitamins with 100mcg of thiamine in it. I go back to the drs next month for a follow up. And i stay cold all the time. I used to sleep with a fan on 24/7 365, now I hate the fan and I freeze where ever i go. I don't care how cold it is.
