Hello world!!...sorry for not posting for a while been moving to are new home!!! :D....the last 2 weeks i keep getting tingling fingers almost like pins and needles in my fingers...never had this before...and i wake up with almost no sensation in my fingers until i start to get the blood going, but all in all i keep getting this horrible feeling in my fingers...any idea,s?....hope every one is well 🙂
 
Hi Ant, nice to see you again.
No one can diagnose what you tingling fingers are so best bet is to go see your GP 🙂
 
I agree with Sue - go and talk to your GP. You may not think it is minor but the only way you will find out is to speak with a Dr.

Your other option is to call NHS Direct - though they may still recommend you see the GP.
 
I used to have the same problem... had it for years, until I lost all that weight. I mentioned it to the doctor when it started, but she didn't seem too concerned.
 
When they go numb and tingly do they go white??
I get this when my fingers are cold. It's very uncomfortable.
Doc told me it was often associated with people that use a lot of power tools which I don't. They have never done anything about it and mentioned something about venal constricture?
 
See the doctor and get advice. It is probable that you have slept on it or slept in an awkward position but it is always worth seeing a doctor to rule everything else out too.
