Bless you Shiann I usually get that in my feet but never in as many places. The only thing i do when that happens is drink plenty of water with cucumber and rest and wait for it to pass. Sorry I cant be of more help. Hope you get some ease soon.

Oh poor you @Shian I have not experienced all this at the one time but I usually keep moving my hands and legs until the numbness subsides, I also have carpal tunnel syndrome so my hands are always getting pins and needles and numbness, not much help but worth a try if you can at least clench and open ur hands and maybe stretch ur feet xxx

I'm so sorry you are going through this. I haven't had this symptom so bad, but some things you could try if you have the funds is a full body massage. Medicare will pay for a chiropractor, and that could help if he/she is a good one. Acupuncture is also an option. I always hesitate to suggest what to take to people I don't know, but if your diet isn't clean (processed foods, red meat, pesticides, hormones, sugar, etc) it would be wise to cut all those things out. If you don't feel better soon, then get thee to a doctor. you shouldn't have to suffer this way.
