numbness and tingling of the finger tips and feet I am two years out, and for the past week I have been experiencing numbness and tingling of the hands and feet. I have ignored it, but it has not gone away, so I wanted to ask if anyone thinks it may be related in any where to the WLS... Any is welcomed... I have an appointment to see my doctor on March 3rd Alberto

I was just wondering what the doctor thought the cause for the numbness and tingling was Does it have anything to do with the WLS?? Valerie

Went to the doctors on Friday... My labs were great he said the tingling could have been from deficiency of b-12 but it was fine... so he said it could be too much caffine. I drink to many espressos , He told me if it don't get better go see my pcp, because it don't seem to be related to my wls Alberto

Alberto, I just wanted to let you know I was having the same problem with the tingling fingers and toes. I went to see my surgeon and he told me to take a B-1 (Thiamine) daily and it has helped drastically. I no longer have the feeling in my fingers or toes. Give it a try. Mellisia

Do they test b-1 in labs? and was yours high or low? or did the doctor just tell you to take them and the tingling went away? Thank you for the response Albert
