Hello, I had the same problems started reseaching and found out that vitamin B12 deficiency causes this. As long as I supplement with B12 I have no problem. If I forget to take the B12 I have problems again. Besure to use the kind that needs to stay under the tongue for a minute or so. How much depends on the person. Sometimes I take between 3,000 - 5,000 mcg a day. You will know when you get enough as the symtoms go away. I have found the amount for varies depending on stress and other things. Also B12 can help with energy levels. Good Luck as my experience the numbness and tingling can really hurt. There is also a homepathic product on the market that others have had good luck with. Can't mention name but has the word nerve in it if B12 doesn't work.Replied by Alex (Los Angeles, CA) on 04/22/2009

On this B12 discussion, I understand it is super important to get sublingual METHYLCOBALAMIN B12 - it must be Methylcobalamin and you should take at least 1000mcg per day. Several people I know with nerve issues have used this successfully.Replied by Ravi C (Alpharetta, Ga, Usa) on 01/10/2012
My wife had tingling sensation in her arms and she took magnesium (400 mg) twice a day with Vitamin B6 (200 mg) twice/thrice and B12 (5000mcg) once a day helped her. I heard that B vitamins work better together so take these with a B-complex vitamin.
