Not really, for me it is everything on my right side, arm, leg, foott, and lower torso.

Groin is safe for now...

I do but it didn't start out like that.  When my symptoms first started it was all on one side but 3 years later it's all over like your having.  How long have you had this numbness?  Do you have MS?  I hope that someone will be able to help you more than I can.

I'll be praying,
Carol

Prayers are much appreciated. Thank you for that.
The numbness started about 1 week ago, and yes, I was diagnosed with MS
through MRI scans about 3 1/2 years ago, when I had (also bilateral) an inability to focus my eyes. very narrow minded tunnel vision! Have had several other symptoms over the years but nothing like this. I hope and pray,too that this will pass and not leave too much behind.

I have not complete numbness, but like my whole left leg is asleep...and just my right foot.  Makes for a clumsy jog in the park!  Not fun, not at all.  Just pins and needles and burning sensation.  Less feeling, but not numb.  I also get it in both my arms - distal to proximal numbness....
