What Causes Tingling Sensation On The Left Arm?

My daughter (18) has been experiencing tingling in her left arm for about a week. She just told me tonight. She says at times it is actually asleep and has woken up in the middle of the night to this. She hasn t injured it that she knows of. She currently takes enscyce (sp) birthcontrol to regulate her periods and also takes daily med for anxiety. Sertraline 50mg. Occasionally she takes Lorazepam for panic attacks, but not that often. Could this be a side affect?
