What Causes Tingling Sensation And Numbness On The Left Hand And Leg?
Since about 7pm (it s 2am now) I ve had a tingly numb coldness in my left hand and left leg/foot...ive had some shortness of breath (but only when I stand up) and was having horrible hot flashes but those have at least subsided...My heart rate was 108 but now it s 95...Am I having a heart attack? What should I do? I do suffer from anxiety...Could I just be making this out to be worse than it is? Please help!
Anxiety may cause tingling and numbness of left upper limb and limb. Other possibilities like neuropathy or diabetes or stroke or infection or Vitamin deficiency may present like this.
Do regular exercise, avoid alcohol. Use tablet Pregabalin once daily for five days. Get an ECG done, chest x-ray, urine examination and blood sugar levels.
Please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
