Xombae 113 Posted November 9, 2016 I'm 5 days post of and my left thigh is numb. Has that pins and needles feeling constantly, and when I lay down it hurts. I read it could be sciatica. Since we're using muscles post op to keep our stomach from hurting, something in the back is pressing on a nerve. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lema 236 Posted November 10, 2016 I had it on my left hand fingertips for two days. On the third day I decided if it lasted over night, I would go to the doctor the next day. I woke up and it was not there. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robinplynn 0 Posted November 10, 2016 I had this happen to me, along with several other symptoms. My scalp was also tingly and felt numb. Long story, but finally determined I had a B12 and B1 deficiency. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
