tingling and inability to move

Has anyone had a problem with an inability to move after lying down for the the night. This happens not every night but at least 3-4 times a week. I have been woken with a massive tingling sensation on upper extremeties it is so strong i cannot move until it reaches its max and then starts subsiding. It is very painful because it is such a strong tingling sensation. This is horrible just started in june and doctor says means my neck go worse but i just need to know that i am not the only one dealing with this.

hi refugee

i get that feeling in lower body when im in the wrong position. its like being paralyzed. but i dont get it as often as you,..that must be really disturbing to you. just want you to know youre not alone.
by the way in your history you mention swelling of legs below the knees. are you on lyrica or neurontin...they cause swelling....pete
