    Hi pro,

    Doesn't sound like AL related symptoms, but everyone is different. Maybe you should visit the Doc. Sounds like nerve damage of some sort. Good Luck

      Should I be worried??

      Hello Pro, my son (who isn't a drinker) is suffering with the very same complaint and is undergoing a series of tests to determine what it actually is. At times it is so severe for him he says someone could hack off his hand and he wouldn't feel a thing - a bit scary really! I also work in the medical field and work with experts/professors so have info at my finger tips. It is a vascular related disorder and could be one or two of many things - have a look at information online about fibromyalgia and paresthesia. These are the two we are currently looking into. Certainly see your doctor and get sound advice, as I'm no expert just happen to know a wee bit because of my son.
      It is not what we do, but how much love we put into the doing.

          Proparty I suffered them tinglings, mostly when I stopped drinking for a day or to, I would say it is well connected to your drinking but the mario man aint a doctor so have it checked out,all the best :-)

                Hey Bob,

                To be honest it could be ANYTHING, but I had symptoms of this from drinking. I often had a sort of numbness in my hands and feet accompanied by quite painful tingling if that makes sense while being numb! It has thankfully gone away now that I have stopped drinking, but during my last bout my feet were affected for a whole month. I was convinced at the time that it was permanent peripheral neuropathy - very scary!

                I would also get tingling in my hands, feet and around my mouth while in withdrawal - I don't know what causes that.

                Dose up on the B vitamins and good luck!
