numb hands?

Posted on 04/28/09, 07:10 am

Does anyone else get numb hands and fingers??? Its like all the sudden and they feel like they have fallen a sleep. But I know they aren't cuz I haven't put them in any position to do so. Relaxing or typing or crocheting. I don't get it,,,,,

  Mine have been numb since 06. Sometimes I will get a quick feel of something. They also feel swollen like they might pop. Some days more than others.

  Yes the tips of my fingers and thumb go numb all the time, and sometimes I can't feel things where they are numb and I hate that feeling.

  well, I still have the numbness, not as bad. It was so bad that I couldn't do dishes for fear I would cut myself or drop things. But as of today its not that bad just feel slightly asleep, and tingly. Which I am glad that the worst is over for now. It was horrible, I was also waking up at night with pain in my right arm. OMG it was awful.
