ants
I am not paranoid, nor hypochondriac, but I woke up in the middle of the night after falling asleep on the couch (on my left arm apparently) with the aforementioned limb completely numb. It has happened before, and I did not think much of it, but ten hours later I still feel ants crawling in my fingers, and a numb pain in my left bicep.
I am sure it's no big deal. Is it? Could I be getting a stroke? Or did the piercing sever a major nerve going through my left nipple? Is there a doctor in blogland? update: 24 hours later, still pins and needles in my little finger, although less than yesterday. And a string of friends telling me that yes, I am paranoid and hypochondriac.
