I will see the doctor but was wondering if anyone else might have experienced this.
If you are not sure what it is basically I am experiencing a numbness and tingling feeling in my left fore-arm and pinky and ring finger of left hand. Sort of the feeling you get when you hit your funny bone. About as funny too.

Thing is I have no idea how it happened. It came on suddenly and no it is not the onset of a heart attack.

Most common presentation is with people who drive for their job. Leaning on it or pressure on the nerve tract at a work station will also cause this.

Nothing you can do but alter your work environment
