Suggest Remedy For Tingling Sensation In Hand While Treating Hypothyroidism

When I lay down to sleep, winter, spring, summer, or fall, I often get a tingling/freezing sensation starting at feet and going up through body -- cold to the bone -- yet burning as it progresses. lasts only seconds and comes and goes. Normally when I lay down to sleep, but occasionally other times. Almost EVERY time I lay down to sleep. I already have hypothyroidism and my levels are adequately controlled with Levothyroxin. What might this be? Thank you.

greetings.
my advice to you is to continue taking medications that you are taking for the control of hypothyroidism.the tingling sensation sometimes may be due to low levels of vitamin B12 which occurs in due course of hypothyroidism .So you can take vitamin B12 capules once a day for 30 days.
