Thank you for responding! I appreciate your concern.
The tingling (neuropathy) in my left am's ulnar nerve distribution is probably due to Velcade® (bortezomib) treatment for my multiple myeloma.
Hello @gardiner, I would like to add my welcome along with @colleenyoung and others. I also have neuropathy but mine is idiopathic small fiber neuropathy. I do sometimes get tingling in my left or right arm that I'm sure is ulnar nerve related but it normally only occurs when I'm sleeping on my side and it wakes my up so I have to roll over to the other side or on my back for relief. I'm wondering if you might find the following information from the Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy helpful.

Welcome @gardiner. We have many people talking about managing peripheral neuropathy here. To help me connect you with similar people, can you tell me - are you experience neuropathy as a result of cancer treatment such as chemotherapy?
