Transient leg and arm tingling

Written by: Dr. Rowena | Posted: Jan 28 2008

Q: My legs and arms feel tingly for a few seconds and then it goes away. I notice it upon waking up in the morning most often. Could this have anything to do with my fluctuating BP?

A: Transient leg and arm tingling could be a warning sign of an impending stroke, especially if it is associated with an early morning elevation of blood pressure. This needs to be evaluated, as soon as possible, by a physician.
