I don't know what it means per say...but I know that numbness and tingling are common with anxiety, and can often be relieved with breathing exercises.

Give it a try...practice slow deep breathing for 15 minutes or so and see how you feel.:)

Numbness is definitely very common with anxiety and panic attacks from hyperventilating, you can try breathing into a paper bag, i also get alot of numbness, take care brett im here to help,
