Pins and needles down my arm
Post Body

Ok redditers let's see what you think. For the past 2 months or so I've been gets pins and needles down my left arm and into my hand. Mainly thumb, index and middle finger.

It lasts for 10 seconds or so then fades away. Sometimes it is painful, almost like electricity.

I was concerned it was my heart so I went to the dr about a month ago and he ordered a xray and sent me to see if it was a carpal tunnel issue. The Dr checked my nerves and everything came back fine.

The issue is getting worse. It seems like it starts from under my arm. Happens every few min or so. Happens 20 times an hour easily. I tired to write down when it happens and what I was doing but it is just all the time.

I messaged my Dr to see what the next step is and it's been 3 days and no reply.

My wife is telling me to go to urgent care. Of course as a guy I don't want to go and spend the time or money but I also do not think it's just going to go away on its own. Anyone encounter something like this?
