My right arm is completly numb and I panic out of my bed sometimes. The reason is that I fall asleep on my shoulder and sometimes it takes a minute til it functions again.
Last night I fell asleep again and woke up and it it took longer than usual to get it back to moving. I started crying and was totally panic mode.
Is this something that can cause long term issues if this happens frequently or should I change the way I sleep? Can I ignore it?
Not sure if mentioned yet. But this started happening to me a few months back. I talked to my physician and he immediately suspected vitamin B12 deficiency. Which, after a blood test, turned out to be correct. 5 vitamin shots later (1 per week) and the problem was gone pretty much instantly.
