Quite frequently when I sleep I get some really painful pins and needles only on my left side. I've read some articles and they say it might be a stroke :icon_sad: so that doesn't sound too great... Any suggestions?
It could just be the position you sleep in. I get it sometimes when I wake up in an awkward position.
Do you have any pain or numbness when awake? If not then I would suspect your sleeping position is putting pressure on a nerve. How old is your bed, does it give you proper support. If you can try sleeping in a different positon.
My entire left side gets pins and needles. My face and crotch too... My bed is 6-ish years old and is pretty stiff. This is in the middle of my sleep and it usually wakes me up from my slumber. I don't feel any pain or numbness when awake. I hope it's nothing too serious...
