One week Post-op leg numbness
RNY on 03/20/14
9 months out and I still have it in my right leg. My doc says a lot of workmen get it from wearing a tool belt. So strange.. It comes and goes and it is so annoying. In the beginning I couldn't sleep on my right side because of the numbness but I couldn't sleep on my left side because of the surgery... It as a pickle for sure.
I would call your doctor. You've just been through surgery and your body is trying to repair itself, so it's upping the amount of coagulant in your blood. I was given a series of daily injections to take at home for my first 2 weeks post op to prevent blood clots, so please, call your doctor and get their opinion.
