Numbness on Right or Left Side

Numbness on Right or Left Side

For the past couple years no matter which side I sleep on my other side goes numb (i.e., if I'm laying on my left side my right will get numb; and vice versa).  I start out sleeping on my back but eventually shift to one side or the other.  I will wake up at least 4 times a night because of the numbness.  On nights when I'm very tired and it takes me longer to wake up, the side that is numb will be so bad that I have to physically move the numb side using my good arm.  It is just like the feeling you get when a hand or foot "falls asleep".   It does not occur on one side more then the other and the doppler of my Carotid arteries is normal.  Any suggestions?
