Guest guest Posted March 25, 2004 Report Share Posted March 25, 2004 Hi Sharron: I read your reply about numbness. I am also right at 4 months and also have numbness in lower lip and chin. Actually, the feeling is somewhat all back, but it still feels numb or what I have heard of as altered. I was curious if yours is like this? Seems like I got feeling back after two months, but it's not normal. That's also when the tingles stopped. Well, I've heard it can take up to a year or more and we are still early, so there is hope. Are you bothered by your speech with the numbness? Seems like certain words are difficult and I was wondering if it because of the lower lip. I wish you the best of luck.
