Lately I've been waking up in the middle of the night with tingling numb hands, and thought that i must have just been sleeping on them. But now about once a day, one of my hand will start to feel numb and tingly. Also, I recently got a hemorrhoid so I don't know if that has anything to do with it.

Hi, If you tell me that you have numbness in night only then even I might have thought that but if you have numbness even in the day then there can be many causes but haemorrhoid and this disease should not be linked and they don't have anything in common. Do you have any pain in back ? Does colour change when you have numbness (do they change to blue) ? Do you have regular headache ? Otherwise whatever the complaint be - - Try avoid smoking - Try avoid caffeine - Keep your feet warm Fee ...

I have an irregular heart beat that on occasion has been making my chest feel like someone is poking it. The poking pain feeling only occurs in a single location (right side of my sternum next to my nipple) and goes away in a few seconds. Went to the ER but the blood tests found nothing. This has been going on since 8pm Tuesday. I had issues sleeping until my wife came in, and when she laid down next to me I fell asleep. I have no issue staying asleep. Also, I have little to no appetite and I also have to burp a lot.

Hi, For the symptoms you are presenting, we need to rule out the presence of angina in such a situation since you have told me that your blood tests revealed nothing. I also hope that you must have got an ECG done(which can only rule out presence of any heart disease). Excessive burping and such symptoms can also be due to gerd(gastro esophageal reflux disease). First of all you will have to rule out any associated heart disease,since you are in high risk group(diabetic,mildly hypertensive). ...

Hi, I don't think these symptoms are because of any accident in which your head hit a window. That is difficult and it seems to be some kind of an infection only and usually the viral infection heals up automatically in around 5-6 days. They can be of multiple types and and at times they can be very serious,in which your sleep might be affected too. But wait for blood tests they would tell you something about your health further,and if your health does not improve then you may go for further ...

Hi, Your tests are more or less normal but are in a little higher range as for sodium is a little high.

Hi, As you told me that you have sounds in your chest,you need better attention than the drugs given to you(the four drugs you mentioned me). You should have been prescribed with an bronchodialator by your dotor which is missing in your prescription. Not remembering dreams is basically fine with most people and that is not a problem(that means that you had a sound sleep). What you told me that you stopped breathing in middle of night this is known as paroxsysmal nocturnal dyspnea and is usual ...
