Hello @gojuman, welcome to Connect. I'm tagging our moderator @ethanmcconkey to see if we should move your post/discussion to the following discussion where it will have more visibility with other members who share the same or similar symptoms with you.

I've experienced similar symptoms when I sleep on my arm and wake up and my entire arm is numb/tingling. In my case it doesn't last long but long enough to worry about the cause. The doctor told me it was a pinched nerve and I tend to agree with him. Once the nerve was no longer being pinched things went back to normal. In your case where it's still the same after 5 days I would also be concerned and want to find out the cause. Here's an article that may provide some information.

Why are my legs and feet numb?

Are you still traveling home? You might want to see if you can get an appointment with your doctor or a neurologist if you still have the numbness.
