Have you asked your doctor about this? I think they should be able to help. Also, I will pray for you!
Arlene, I haven't had the numbness you describe, but will pray for a resolution. The only numbness I had was in my chest area, but it's mostly gone now 9 months later except for a few small spots. God bless you!
You're very welcome and I hope it gets better soon, too! God bless!
