Guest guest Posted June 9, 2002 Report Share Posted June 9, 2002 hi all id first like to say thanks to all who answered about the swelling issue. i went to my family dr and well..its not chiari related thank god, but becasue im overweight its a heart issue..go figure. so i have been ordered to lose 10lbs this month or i risk severe edema and blowing out my knees...ughh..lol..thanks for all the concern ok questions on ths chiari homefront. i was wondering if anybody else has a problem with the right side of their incision? i am almost 3 months post op and i know it still is supposed to feel numb however mine hurts to the touch. not like the numb feeling but actually hurts and feels weird. i know this is probably normal but im not sure. also im having problems with the left side of my body. my arms and legs are going numb . before they go numb i they ache or kind of hurt. the back of my arm and my last 2 fingers on my left arm are what go numb and on my leg i get a pain down the back of my leg then a warm feeling then numbness. it was like this b4 surgery and it isnt as bad now but it has come back .any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. thanks kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
