    Hi Tracy, glad your Hysterectomy went well, I didn't have the numb feeling you mention but I know someone on here has experienced that problem as well, it's a little while since I heard from her so don't know how long it went on for but you should certainly go and ask about it, the uncomfortable feeling due to stiches will wear off eventually but don't forget that even though you have had keyhole, the surgeon has still cut through a few layers of tissue to get where he/she is going so your insides will be bruised and healing for a while yet.
