I Had A Two Level Lumbar Fusion And Its Been

I had a two level lumbar fusion and its been about 3 months since surgery. Just recently both my hands feel a bit weak, tingly, and swollen. This occurs especially when I lie down on my left side. I just want to make sure it has nothing to do with a possible spinal chord compression. I don't have any BP/Heart problems either. What do you think it could be?
