For a while I was waking up constantly with my hands feeling as though they fell asleep. I would move them and massage and the feeling went away. The last three nights I have had interrupted sleep not knowing what my problem is as in as I type this I have tingling in both arms, my chest feels constricted a little. I have had gastric problems in the past and keep thinking that this might be the cause. I chew Gaviscon nightly and am on prescription drugs Atorvastatin for Cholesterol and Sandoz-Bisopolol(Fumarate) 5mg for lower heart valve flow. I am feeling better as I type and when awake. I have had a back problem for the last 2 1/2 weeks as well. Am I paranoid?
you may seen orthopedic doctor to assess cervical spine and locate cause of tingling to arms. An X-ray of spine would be helpful. Treatment will depend on diagnosis. For back pain do fomentation and take Advil tabs after meals. Best wishes
