Left Arm / Knee Goes Numb In A Person Who Has Clots In Both Lungs And 2.4 Cm In Aorta.
I have had numerous surgery on left knee, but of late I have had a lot of numbness and burning sensation down the leg as well. Back in May I was diagnose with several clots in both lungs & a 2.4cm in the aorta but still left arm also goes numb with a tingling sensation in the hand.

Tingling and numbness in half body can be due to small clot migrating in brain. This is called Transient ischemic attack. Also it can be due to low vitamin b 12 or low sarum calcium. I would advice you to take opinion from neurologist, and start tking vitamin methylcobal.
