carolyn24seven 11 Posted October 22, 2009 I have experienced this numbness for a while. off and on. Usually in bed. I think I am laying on my right hip/side to long when I go to sleep. Or maybe just on my back too long. It definately worsened when I was in the hospital and down for thoes two days. I got up and walked at all hours. I am walking even more now and doing the deep breathing exercises. If I sit to long ie: computer, I get the tingling feeling.SO, for now I am not doing more than one hour on computer. That is a hardrestriction. this is where I chat/vent/getinfo. Have an appt with pcp next week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

okalani 0 Posted October 23, 2009 hopefully all goes well with you pcp...let us know what happens. I meet with my Surgeon on Saturday for my post op. He orginally told me that in the first month he anticipates me to lose 30 pounds.....but so far I have lost 20 pounds at 2 weeks. Will I keep losing weight or will I go through the 3 week stall? Does everyone go through the weight stall? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carolyn24seven 11 Posted October 23, 2009 no not everyone goes thru that. Look in another thread for the weightloss blues. They will tell you to measure,and see the tape come together, even thu the scale is not moving. Do not worry about a stall. If it happens, up the exercize and your body will show up well at the end of the stall. It is just that, a temporary stall.Donotloose your commitment.
