It is a pinched nerve in your back or neck. You need to go to an orthopedic doctor.

Make sure you are checked out for pernicious anemia (Vitamin B12). Also, be checked for neuropathy (nerve damage; can also be perpheral). I am currently undergoing tests to see what is causing my ailment, which sounds like yours. My father has both the p.anemia and perpheral neuropathy (feet; aggrivated by WW II, frozen feet), but the P.Anemia is hereditary due to the body being unable to process the B-Vitamins properly. Coincides with Diabetes, and even thyroid problems. I've checked clear on the diabetes, anemia, neuropathy, thyroid causes. Have undergone a fully encased MRI scan from head to hip; found nothing. To undergo an EKG (or similar initials) test that will send electrical shocks into me to see how I respond. My doctor is trying to rule out Multiple Sclerosis. I think that a sit-down, upright MRI may also show something, so if this last test doesn't work, back to a different type of MRI. I have low blood pressure (usually 90/60), and it use to be only on cold days I'd feel the numbness in my fingertips. This numbness is felt even in days over 100 degrees. Now it has escalated down my left side from the baby finger on down the elbow, and I sense it down my left leg thigh, outside mid calf. Both feet (esp the left under the ball of the foot) feel like pieces of paper are sticking on the bottom - but its the nerve damage. I wish us both the best!

I would go to the doctor. See what's up - get a MRI or CAT scan to make sure your blood vessels are all right.
My dad (52) had undiagnosed numbness in forearms and hands for 2 years before he had an aneurysm and died.
You don't want to have that or stroke out. Paralysis sucks!
Take care.

Please see your doctor ASAP. It may be nothing. But you shoud get checked out to be certian. Numbness in your hands and feet could be a sign of poor circulation. However with your blood pressure being so high. I would get it checked out.
Good luck.

I am not a physician, but I know that your diastolic BP is too high. You need to be thoroughly checked by a Dr. soon. Good luck.

Reynaud's Syndrome will cause this. So will muscle problems in the back. They can interfere with the nerves. Please see a doctor or clinic.
