DH is not feeling well again and just drove himself to the ER! He wouldn't let me go! I was sound asleep on the sofa sleeper and he woke me up just in time to tell me he was going! He said he doesn't want me to have to sit there!
I talked to the doctor yesterday - called with a question about the dressing. So while I had him on the phone I asked him about the numbness. He said there are three categories - one where the numbness and tingling would be gone as soon as the numbing medication from the surgery wore off - obviously not the category I would be in! - The second where it would take about six weeks for the numbness and tingling to go away and the third where it could take up to six months for the numbness and tingling to go away. He said he thinks I will fall into the third category because of the results of the nerve conduction study and because of how long the numbness and tingling was there before surgery. But he said not to give up hope - he does feel that the numbness and tingling will go away! So that made me feel a little better!!!!
You know, if it makes you feel any better..........I haven't had any feeling in part of my stomach for over 8 years now... since I had my last C-section
