Tingling And Numbness In Hand



Recommended Posts

I'm having tingling and numbness in my hand. Wondering if anybody else has experience this or is this just an isolated incident for me.

I get that all the time, but it's because I need to go to the chiropractor. My neck is messed up.

Do you have any other alarming symptoms, or just that?

I get tingling and numbing in my legs since surgery. It seems to happen if I have not eaten enough or am dehydrated. When I drink a lot that day it does not seem to happen.

I am so glad you brought this up! A couple days ago I started getting a tingling sensation on my lower leg. I only get it once in a while. I was hopping it was not blood clot related. Can't wait to see what the more experienced sleevers have to say.

Tingling can be low protien. Your blood work will show it

I get tingling numb feeling when my blood sugar gets to low. Goes away when I eat

I know I'm definitely not getting the amount of Protein that I need, especially today. I have to figure out a way to start getting more.

Getting Protein in is hard for me too. I am drinking a lot of Water because I have been outside working so much in the heat and am afraid to dehydrate. I need to work on that.

Are you taking B-12? Neuropathy is a possibility if you are not. All of us need B-12 supplementation following VSG.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
