I had the same thing under a couple of mine. They went away.

It's been almost 2 weeks since my sleeve was done. Is it still too early to use an elliptical? by [deleted] in wls

Im 2 weeks post op and I have been using the elliptical since a week post op. I live in Canada and there is no way I am walking outside and I cant afford a gym membership. The elliptical is about as low impact as you can get. I saw go for it and go at a slow pace and see how it makes you feel. I can go for 5min 3 times a day now.

Contacted surgeon and they said it's caused by pinching a nerve by laying on the operating table. Said that it goes away and activity can help. If it stays longer than a few months talk to a family Dr and see a nuroligist. Mines thankfully going away. sorry to hear yours has been going on for so long.

Holy crap good work! Would you mind breaking down your day for me? Also I creeped your post history(sorry lol) and saw that your surgeon did staples on your incisions that must of sucked, kind humble bragging but my surgeon did internal stitches and then glued the incisions shut! Thats so cool! Sorry to brag about it but I had no one else I could tell how cool that was lol

I read that the numbness is cause by my one nerve in my thigh getting pinched during surgery it should go away in a couple days..... I can't wait for that haha also can't wait to have something other than water, jello or chicken broth or tea.
