Hi there...
Regarding your concern I want to tell you that after removal of fibroids or gall bladder there is no correlation between Numbness and surgery.
Numbness in hands can be because of Cervical spine problem and involvement of sensory nerves in this area can present with Numbness.
I will suggest you to get your MRI cervical spine to rule out possible cervical spine problem.So get test and proceed further.
