Tongue numbness post

(1/1)

pamelasimonsen:
I am almost 4 weeks post translab AN resection and since surgery I have been experiencing left sided tongue numbness. This was the side of my AN. Has anyone else experienced this, and if so, how long till it resolves?

raji83:
It would go away soon. Mine went within one week

LakeErie:
My tongue is still somewhat numb just over three years after surgery, but I rarely notice it anymore. It has improved and I have become accustomed to it, I guess. Time has helped me more than anything else.

asliczniak:
I am 7 weeks after my surgery, and have the same problem. Kind of feels like I lost my taste buds on half of the tongue.  Food doesn't taste the same on that side. After 7 weeks it still feels the same, no changes. I hope it slowly goes away.

michelej:
I never had any tongue numbness but I do have a decrease in saliva. It has gotten better but still feels like my teeth get "furry". UGH. My right eye (AN side) does not tear any more. It has been 5 months today since my translab surgery. It is not as dry as before tho.. Do you notice less saliva also?
