Just went to stand up when both my arms went tingly and numb feeling lasted only about a minute or two

Had 2 stents after HA 99%,95% and 55% blockages beginning of February 3 weeks later angiogram to do the 55% on left hand artery but had reduced to 40% so not done

On loads of meds which my body has finally adjusted to and have been feeling a lot better l also have unstable angina, problems with the sinus node, diabetes,hypothyroidism, copd familiar hyper cholesterol, cardiovascular and stroke

Has anyone else had this horrible feeling should I be worried or just get on with things as usual

Thanks in advance for any response

Any chest pain or pain travelling to jaw or arms? If so then ring 999 ASAP. Probably you stood up too quickly. If still worried then ring 111.
