Nerve damage from spinal/epidural?
Hello! I think I am suffering from nerve damage. I get tingling in my hands/warm feeling/ and sometimes I get what feels hot around the base of my spine and it seems to be hot to touch. I also sometimes get a cold foot on the left side.
During labour I had an epidural which was also replaced once due to one side getting feeling (mainly the side I have tingling etc. )
I then also had a spinal block because of an emergency c section.
My gp did bloods and I had very low ferritin which I've sorted with an infusion.
I wonder if I have a pinched or damaged nerve? Anyone else get this?
I'm also seeing a neurologist next week to rule out anything else. Just wanted to hear if anyone has any similar symptoms like this and how it resolved.

Yes but in my left leg/knee - the anesthesiologist said I probably pinched a nerve during labor because I was so numb. it took almost 6 weeks for my left leg/knee to stop feeling numb/pins and needles/weakness , I was getting worried but eventually it went away
