Just wondering if anyone has experienced this before?
The last few nights I've woken up overnight a few times and my hands have been totally numb/asleep. I've been lying flat on my back with my arms flat beside me so haven't been lying on them or anything.
Of course I googled and it may be a symptom of poor circulation, an early sign of heart disease. Also I've got some tingling in my hands and pain occasionally in my arms. But the tingling/pain has been going on for a while now, the numbness overnight is new.
Has anyone experienced this and has it been totally harmless or an indicator of something serious? I am overweight and my cholesterol and blood pressure are a bit higher than they should be, so anxiety about heart attacks/disease is one of my biggest concerns.
Thanks in advance.
