long term surgery follows up

long term surgery follows up

I  had a total sogmoid colectomy last year. The recovery has been very hard. I have a pinched femoral nerve i what is called Meraligia parenesthetic. I can walk or stand very long. Cant shop eveb. I am going to physical therapy but it isnt relieving the nerve. I take a ton of neurontin or I would go crazy with the pain. has anyone gotten this after their colectomy? It was immediately after. Even when my legs were numb, I felt the nerves stretching like they were being torn out. Has anyone recovered from this? how has anyone gotten better. Thank you so much for any suggestion

With Kind Regards,
Andrea
