I've noticed that my left leg and arm seem to go numb pretty often when I'm sleeping. It happens more on the left side, and I'm starting to get a bit worried. Also, during sex, I've felt like my heart is somewhat heavier than usual. I'm just curious if these things are connected or if I should be concerned. Any ideas on what might be causing these symptoms?

My left leg and left arm get numb more frequently while sleeping. This could be due to poor blood circulation or nerve compression. I recommend trying Vitamin B complex supplements to improve nerve health. Additionally, consider using a magnesium supplement to help with muscle relaxation and blood flow. For the feeling of a heavier heart during sex, it is important to monitor your heart health. I suggest taking low-dose aspirin daily to help with blood flow and consulting a cardiologist for further evaluation.
