Anyone suffering from it post surgery? Resolved it? Found the reason why?

Call your surgical team and get your vitamin levels checked out. Low B vitamins can do this. It's pretty critical, especially if it's a low B1 (very common in WLS pts) to get it dx'd and remedied. Can be permanent damage.

Called them to notify but on second thought I realized they are not the best to deal with it, they are just surgeons, I'm going to visit my friendly neighborhood hematologist [emoji23]

I developed pretty significant peripheral neuropathy after I developed Diabetic Ketoacidosis. My blood sugar was in 900's by the time the doctor discovered the problem. I was almost in a coma. I developed the neuropathy as a result of this. Pre surgery I took Gabapentin for the nerve pain. I was on a pretty high dose, 600 mg X 3 per day. After surgery, the nurse was crushing my pills and I couldn't get the Gabapentin to go down without gaging or throwing up. So I stopped taking it for the 6 weeks that I couldn't swallow pills. Then I just never went back. Honestly, I don't see much of a difference with or without the medication. Maybe my tolerance had built and it wasn't effective anymore.
