I hope you don't mind my input on the question you asked of Barbara! I
have also noticed circulation problems since TM. My legs seem to "fall
asleep" after sitting for a short time. Also, at night I awake with pain
in my arms and legs and an intense tingling sensation. I did not notice
this after first being diagnosed with TM but lately it seems to happen
quite often. I will be sitting at my computer at work and almost everytime
I get up one of my legs is "asleep". What's up? My hands and feet always
get cold as well. My right hand has been numb and tingly from the
beginning (Sept 96) but at times it is worse. Never had circulation
problems before. Anyone else out there deal with this too? Head even
tingles at times too! Sorry to babble, hope your numbness doesn't cause
too much pain. Wish I had an answer!
