Guest guest Posted March 7, 2005 Report Share Posted March 7, 2005 Welll, um, not perzactly.. At least about the age issues. I had lower only, which is a lot easier than both, methinks. I also had a most excellent, skilled, experienced surgeon. I was 57, almost. No numbness, ever. Not a lot of swelling. A lot of ugly bruising, but it was gone in a week. Jane, two weeks is no time at all. You have a lot of healing time ahead of you. I would be surprised if numbness increases after the healing time --- but hey, I am a lay person. I have heard that sensation can return many months after surgery, which is my best hope for you! C/. > > Kim, If you don't mind me asking your age.
