Don't "wait until you get a chance" to see a doctor about your symptoms; this could be something serious.
My brother experienced the same symptoms you describe. He was diagnosed with scleroderma and diabetes. He died last year. My sister had similar symptoms, suffered a stroke, was diagnosed with diabetes, and will be on medication the rest of her life. She has constant tingling and numbness in her fingers, hands, feet, and legs. This is called neuropothy, and can become excrutiatingly painful, often resulting in complete loss of the flow of blood to the extremities, demanding amputation.
Your symptoms could also be a result of Reynard's Disease, a circulatory condition that may result in the amputation of fingers, toes, hands, feet, and even entire limbs.
If I have frightened you, good! Get yourself to a doctor.

Well, most probably you had too much salt in your body. Try to drink more water everyday. Say, from 8-10 glasses of water a day. It will also help cleanse your body and your entire system. But be sure to see your family doctor, ok?
Have a nice day and GOD BLESS US ALL.

i had a cyst on top of my left wrist which was causing numbness and tingling in my hand also. i had it removed and it was fine, no more numbness. the cyst was pushing on my nerves that may be one thing cause it for you.
