It comes and goes, it feels like they are asleep, you know? I know that these are symptoms of serious things but I'm 26 years old and in good health good shape! Should I go to the doctor asap or wait for an appointment when I get home next week?

Numbness and tingling on the left side can be caused by a blood clot (stroke), or a variety of autoimmune or neurological conditions. Usually strokes cause other symptoms in addition to numbness, but not always. If it was me, I wouldn't wait a week, but some people might be comfortable just taking an aspirin and waiting to see their regular doctor. One or one-half aspirin per day is an important drug for stroke - it dissolves blood clots and limits the amount of damage when a stroke occurs.

It could be a pinch nerve or something more serious like a blood clot or just simple circulation issues. I wouldnt rush to the doctor now, but make an appointment to be seen...they may run some tests and see... its most likely a pinch nerve... dont worry, especially since you are young... but I'd go get it checked out

My husband had this happen to him once b/4..He had 2 vertebra's out of place. If you are very active it is easy to happen. The doctor popped them back in & he was as good as new.
