Well I'm still going through the process like classes, psy eval and nutrition. So I have some time before WLS. However, I did review a few post in the 50+ age group and there were several people who experience the same thing after surgery. I had knee surgery many years ago appx 16yrs ago and had numbness in my right thigh. Todate, my thigh still gets numb from time to time.

I had surgery on the fourth of december and i am experiencing numbness on my tummy area and lower leg area. Doctor says he does not know why.

Mine literally feels like my leg is on fire

Back of leg or front? Kind of sounds like sciatic nerve pain. Could have pinched it during the process..
