PaulB 346 Posted August 22, 2012 Yes I have that restless leg feeling to I'm told it happens when our body's detox. Not by a doctor just from people who think they know everything. Doctor says if it's to bad use children's Tylenol will help it to should pass. I hope soon Good luck Surgery Anniversary 7/30/12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk[/quote'] I do as well, I'm about 6 weeks post op and right out of surgery I had numbness in my right hand and leg, which has moved to include tingling as well. I noticed that as I moved thru recovery, the swelling & Water subsided from these areas, but now that the swelling is all but gone, it's become very painful. I bought an ace bandage for my foot, ankle & lower leg, I have it on now and it feels WONDERFUL & has caused the tingling to subside substantially... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TinyMamiOf3kids 1,280 Posted August 24, 2012 My doctor told me today that the numbness on my legs it's cause by not taking Calcium. So I have to take my Vitamins, Iron & calcium. I had blood work done & I will update on there findings. 1 vhoke1 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
