I just wonder after they did my 2 knee surgeries (and my knee cap has been numb since then) if that might have started all my nerve problems just wondering??

Hi SGirl.
It seems likely that your surgery had some effect, doesn't it?
Did you have any injury or rsd before the surgery?
And, was the surgery to both knees?
And, a numb knee certainly seems to indicate some nerve damage.
But, I'm not a doctor, and couldn't even begin to tell you for sure.
I think it's possible though, if there's a certain timeline...

Hope you get some relief!
