Numbness does anyone have this



Recommended Posts

I am 6 days post op and i was sitting at work and just realized that my stomach feels numb. Between one of my larger bruises and one of the smaller ones. I don't think that it was like this?? Maybe it was. It is about 2 inches above my belly button. Very Strange I think? Oh and my stomach by the incisions has been getting itchy, healing up pretty good, but still very bruised.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

Sue

oh thank you for your reply. I've been thinking so much about this because it has really been bothering me. maybe because i was so bloated from the gases it was like that from the beginning and i didn't realize. I'm happy to hear that i am not the only one. Thanks

I've had surgery in the stomach area a couple of times and have numbness everytime. The numbness from my gallbladder surgery didn't go away for over a year, but then again I had a huge scar.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
