Hi Randy
I.m 4 1/2 weeks post-op and my incision is numb also at about 1-2 cm's each side. It's worse at the top which is the thickest part of the scar. I also have a lump the size of a large marble under the top and bottom of the scar. I imagine it's normal so don't worry. I'm more concerned with how my scar curves around the navel before it heads down! Not pretty! Cathy

I am 10 weeks post op and I still have numbness as well on my left side that is quite large. I already had a scar there from a previous surgery a few years ago and it was never the same after surgery. I still had some numb spots. It doesn't bother me.

I am 2+ years. I can remember that it took more than a year for the "normal" sensation to return in the incision area.
Randy: congrats on your new hardware!

Thanks for all the replys! I dont feel like its so weird now. I guess its not that big a deal, just feels odd. But hey, if thats all I have to gripe about, then I guess I'm doing good
