View Full Version : Pins and needles/twitching/numb
Panicking like mad. I've had two weeks of my arms feeling weak/odd as if they don't belong to me. Now my hands,arms,feet and legs have been having pins and needles all day. Also my hand, fingers are twitching a bit. I also woke up in the night with a numb hand! It was laid on my chest so it wasnt even trapped or anything. Scared. Please help

If it helps your mind at all, I've been to the ER/surgeon/nurses with all those symptoms at once, also adding headaches, eye problems, back, neck and limb pain and ibs/dumping symptoms. I've had an abdomen ultrasound, a brain/neck CT scan, a urinalysis, a complete blood count w/ differential test and a comprehensive metabolic panel on me. They said I likely had dumping syndrome or ibs from a gallbladder surgery but that everything else was due to anxiety. I still have a hard time believing it, but it absolutely possible for all of those things to be anxiety in the eyes of our doctors. If it puts your mind at ease, see a doctor. But, it does sound anxiety driven. Also, I too had a numb hand in my sleep a few times and freaked out. That is an extremely common occurrence but people with anxiety would definitely draw fear from it.
my left leg and feet feel numb and pain and neddle feel like this for weeks.
Hi I know this is an old thread. I have similar symptoms :(
