Got my fistula yesterday

[cchalk11]

Well I got my fistula yesterday. Did anyone have problems with their fingers staying cold and tingly after surgery and if so how long. It's driving me crazy!

Call the vascular surgeon and have the fistula checked.  Ever since my fistula was installed I get tingling like my fingers were asleep, I was told it was carpal tunnel made worse by the fistula.  If I stop using that had for 5 to 10 minutes it goes away.  But the doctor is their to ask question of.  That's his or her job.  If yo are starting the esrf  journey then yo will be dealing with several doctors and you have to taKe any changes to the doctor.  Better to have 9 bogus symptoms checked than to miss the one that was dangerous.
