Foxyblue Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Hey, Something new. I can be sitting and all of a sudden my hand goes numb or my foot goes numb. Or depending on my exact position, part of my back goes numb...Also, I tried a parraffin treatment at home ( soaking in hot wax, letting it harden...supposed to help skin stay smooth) and my hand went numb from that. Anyone else have this?Thanks!B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halmad85 Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 My arms or legs go numb all the time also. Even if I'm not putting any pressure on them...they just go numb. I've also felt numbness in my behind or back.. Not sure why, but I think it's probably one of the common POTS things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faithinspires Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 I get numbness all the time in my hands, sometimes just my fingers. In my feet & my legs...not always both feet or both legs at the same time. Right now my left pinky & left foot our numb... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CyberPixie Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Yes me. But it's my whole body that goes numb and feels light as if I can't feel I have a body, it's horrid. Even get my mouth go numb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ling Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 It is part of pots and due to our veins not constricting. Pooling in pots also contributes to these problems.Hot weather worsens this for me, considerable. There is nothing we can do about it and it gets very irritating and painful sometimes. I am 27 weeks pregnant at the moment and this problem is a nightmare. The swelling of pregnancy will worsen this problem during pregnancy. Just part of our life?s I guess. I love sitting with my feet raised when its very bad. The aircon in my car helps for the feet when you driving. OPEN SHOES is a must for me.

Wufflebear Posted March 3, 2006 Report Share Posted March 3, 2006 Yep. I am always loosing touch with one body part or another...I think it is a standing joke at my house... "oh mommy lost her ____ again" (insert breast, butt, leg...you name it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdomaracki Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 Numbness is normal for us potsy people! I'm having trouble with my jaw going numb these past few days, makes eating a little difficult. Nothing really to worry about though!Nicole Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacquie802 Posted March 4, 2006 Report Share Posted March 4, 2006 Hi, Most of the time I am numb from the waist down...occasionally I wake up with my arms numb, like I had a few shots of novacaine in them. Jacquie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
