Hi I had my surgery Oct.02. I had a stroke and 2 seusures and 3 operations because my brain swelled up. I went in a coma for 6 weeks. Maybe that was good because I can remember no pain but the stroke was no fun I was then in a wheelchair. I'm getting off the subject. I have a real bad numbing on the tumor side of my face. I think it is getting worse instead of better. Its so cold all the time. This does'nt sound like a lot to put up with but it is. Anybody have this? Why does it seem like it is getting worse instead of better? the cakes.{patti}

Hi- I'm no expert. But it sounds like nerve damage. I have had many herniated disks in my back, and 3 surgeries. My legs and feet have sustained permenant nerve damage, hence the circulation isn't good, and they are numb, tingly and cold. Luckily, my face isn't as numb as it was pre-surgery, and gets better every day. Good luck. ::)luv2teach
