this could be the begining signs of a heart attack if your having chest pains see a doctor immediately. If you were sleeping on your left arm it could be a sleep still. But in some cases this is caused by back or pinched nerve. see a chiropracter.

When do you feel the numbness: when you wake up, all of the time, etc.
Which part of the arm is numb: forearm, whole thing, one side, etc
When did it start?
any shortness of breath?

Although it could be something as simple as a pinched nerve or having "slept wrong" - it is also a sign of heart trouble - call your doctor immediately for an appt. or go to the ER if you can't get in to see a doctor.

Herniated or ruptured disk in one of your cervical vertebrae, probably C3 or C4.

you should definitely get medical attention. Particularly if you are over 30.

Go to Docs - can be a pre-cursor to something serious
