hi,
this can be due to microvascular insufficiency. If there are minor blood related issues,especially clotting-related,then it can cause such transient episodes of tingling,numbness and weakness . You should see a microvascular surgeon and get peripheral angiogram done to see for any minor blockages.
thanks

Hello there
This can be due to peripheral neuropathy.get vitamin B6 and B12 tested. Associated brain problems should also be kept in mind. Get a mri of brain to rule out these possibilities. Start on vitamin supplements .
