Hands and feet falling asleep, worried pls help?

Lately my feet have been going numb for no apparent reason, falling asleep. I usually don't notice it right away unless I go to get up, or until the blood starts flowing again and I get that tingling feeling. It has also happened to my hand and fingers a couple times, but not as often.

This has been happening for about 2 weeks now. It happens roughly 3 times a day or more.

I do have the blood clotting disorder Factor V Leiden. Could it be anything to do with that? If not what COULD be the possible problem?

You need to ask a doctor, right away. What happens if you exercise?

yes it could be to do with blood clotting u could also maybe be haveing a touch of restless leg syndrom,but i would goto the er if it was happening to me...good luck i hope all turns out well

I would see your doctor asap, your extremities "going to sleep" indicates a circulation problem. Note down what you are doing when it happens, how you are sitting, or laying or standing.

Does Diabetes run in your family? Please get checked. In my family this has been a sympton of nerve damage due to high blood sugar.

You definatly need to talk to your doctor about that.

I wouldn't take any advice from anyone here. You have a condition that needs attention from your doctor.
