What Causes Pain And Tingling Sensation In The Left Arm?

I have been having soreness in my left arm and also some tingling. I thought it was caused by laying on an uncomfortable sofa, but after doing light housework for a couple of hours today I noticed that when I sat down to rest that my left hand and my arm were tingling, though I am right handed. I have serious insomnia caused by depression and not winding down. Can you tell me what may be causing this and if I need to see a Dr right away?
