Anyone having tingles and numbness in feet since PM?

I had my pacemaker placed in December. I had to have an adenosine stress test in Feb. and since then I seem to be having a lot of tingles, going to sleep feeling and numbness in the feet, legs, arm and hands. Has anyone else had anything like this or do I have something else to worry about? The cardiologist said he has never heard of adenosine doing this. Just wondered if anyone else has had these symptoms. Thanks all!

I am not a doctor.

That said, you should keep trying to determine the cause of your symptoms. You know your body and know what 'feels' different. Often we spend more time trying to convince our doctors that our concerns are real than we should have to.

Other disorders often have that same type of symptoms sending folks to the Dr. for diagnosis.

Hi! I have experience numbness in my arms and legs before. It happened more when my pacer was set at a higher setting and often during exercise. Since, My Dr changed my pacer settings and I haven't had the symptoms for almost a year now.
