Hi, has anyone experienced numbness in some parts of their body and tingling in their hands. I am 3 weeks post op, and yesterday started feeling my right side arm and right thigh numb, and today i feel my left side arm. I dont know why this happens, anybody any idea?

I'm 5 days post of and my left thigh is numb. Has that pins and needles feeling constantly, and when I lay down it hurts. I read it could be sciatica. Since we're using muscles post op to keep our stomach from hurting, something in the back is pressing on a nerve.

I'd check with your surgeons office with regards to numbness like that.

I'm 4 months post I had the left thigh numbing and just getting feeling back,my dr says it's from cutting nerves,or being straped to bed

I had it on my left hand fingertips for two days. On the third day I decided if it lasted over night, I would go to the doctor the next day. I woke up and it was not there.

I had this happen to me, along with several other symptoms. My scalp was also tingly and felt numb. Long story, but finally determined I had a B12 and B1 deficiency.
