So the last two days I've notice some random tingles happening around my hands but I don't notice it if I'm not thinking about it now I feel like I'm getting it the pinky and ring finger, like when I lay on my arm those fingers alleays feel weird and it's kinda like that feeling but not no where as strong, I don't know if I'm just thinking about it that's making it happen? My worst fears are diabetes and a brain tumour and I immediately think it's one of those :(

Hi Brad
Your symptoms seem to mirror my own. See my thread just beneath yours. I suffer with anxiety so any little thing makes me spiral albeit I'm new to HA. The tingling is worrying me though .... I'm trying to remind myself it's likely just a nerve issue from neck problem or bad posture ... but I've been worrying about BT on and off since December.

I noticed that and IMO, yours was a trigger. If you lay on your arm, you're bound to get "tingles" due to restricted blood flow. It's just the HA mind making something out of nothing.

Doesnt everyone on earth get pins and needs on their hands if they lay down on it or if its in a weird position? If it goes away soonish after doesn't that tell you it was due to the position of your arms or legs?

My neurolgist said I don't even have to get a MRI because he's not worried at all but then the symptom came the other day-.- he also said it's very hard to miss and to stop worrying

Yah but sometimes it will come when I'm playing a video game or something and goes away

Repetitive motion (like video gaming) can irritate your ulnar nerve, which causes tingling in pinky and ring finger. I’ve been through this with racquetball and piano. Just rest it for a bit a it’ll subside. My doctor told me this. It’s no brain tumor.

Are you being serious??
It happens to me when i have my hand out holding my phone (same fingers youve stated btw) and my elbows a little bent. Its happening right now as i type on my phone. Its absolutely normal and probably happens 99.99999% of the population.

I'm just worried because I have bad depersonalization and I'm afraid that is a symptom -.-

You've had this fear for over a year. You wouldn't be here if it was reality.

You said you were seeing a psychiatrist. Did you ever get on meds? What does your psychiatrist think about you posting here?
