Tingling arm and hand
Try repositioning your arm/hand - maybe you're compressing a nerve. Put your arm on a pillow and roll up a towel to rest your hand over. Hope that helps:)

I'm good now. First Both of my arms, hands and cheeks went tingly and then I peed only the tiniest bit, that's when I realized that I was dehydrated. I have been having trouble getting those liquids down but I've made it my mission to get drinking. 3/4 cup water later, I feel much better.
I have heard of this happening. It's thought to be a result of the way they positioned you on the operating table. Like the previous poster said, usually a compressed nerve.
Hope it feels better soon!

Glad to hear that you're feeling better! Dehydration never even occurred to me - thanks for giving me a heads up on what to look for in case I run into this problem in the future! All these new things that we have to be in tuned with after surgery...
