The thumb on my right hand has started to become numb on and off for the last week or so. No tingling, just numbness. And it looses feeling. It happens several times throughout the day. I'm going to call and make a doctor's appointment tomorrow. But in the meantime, has anyone dealt with this? It may just be carpal tunnel.

    It just happens randomly, even when I'm not using that hand. Sometimes it even happens when I'm walking, or sitting down watching TV.

    sometimes my hands go numb.my doctor said its from years of working with my hands.
    usually happens after after having them in one position for awhile. like a motorcycle ride or even siting after a long day at work
