I have a tingling sensation on the entire left side of my body (including arm, face, leg). Never on the right side. It feels exactly like goosebumps, but the skin is not raised, and it is not present on the right side at all. It started more than a month ago and was fairly infrequent, now it is almost constant. When it first started I lost some coordination on the left side, but that doesnt really happen anymore(I have had hip/knee surgery in the past so I walk rather stiffly to begin with). I've been trying to wait it out and see if it goes away, but now I am getting worried as its getting worse. I'm 24, avg height, weight, health. Any ideas on what it could be? Thanks

About the heart thing- I was on Celebrex for a couple months for arthritis until it landed me in the ER twice for chest pain, shortly after they pulled it from the market. That was well over a year ago tho

well you might have had a minor stroke and not known it, if that happened then you would be havin the problems you are talkin about, i am not to concered it is a heart attack cause it is not sharp shootin pain and your chest does not hurt

cud be the beginning of paralysis, especially as you say u lost some coordination at first....either that or parkinson's wch is very rare among young people and i don't thnk parkinson's is restricted to one part of the body either....but i'm no doctor.
so i'd say get your health insurance ready and get some tests done. usually such probs r related to the brain and spine...go to a neurologist ASAP.
goodluck!
