Thread: Numbness

First off, what did you do?

Second, it could be a few things...Pinched nerve being a probable culprit. What event prompted this?

I have no idea what prompted it. I thinking maybe from being at the computer for long periods of time for my pinkie, that's when I noticed it kept going numb, now it's just always numb.

Wild ass speculation (since we have little to go on here):

peripheral neuropathy, vitamin-related.

B6 deficiency. Might try B6 and taurine, plus magnesium in a soluble form (gluconate, citrate, malate, acetate).

If this doesn't work, switch B6 forms to whats called P-5-P; this came up on another forum today, and it makes sense that some of us won't convert the cheap synthetic commercial form of B6 to its biologically active counterpart.

The fact that you have the numbness in hand and foot does not lend itself to a cause from pinched nerves.

There maybe other causes; this is just a guess off the top of my head. You got diabetes, arthritis or asthma in your family history?

You took the rest of your vicodin didn't you?

I had the same problem in my pinky after trying to pull a cord apart. My trainer told me I had bruised a nerve and that feeling would return within a 3-4 weeks and it did.
