Hello there. Tingling sensation in the face could be related to various types of dyselectrolytemias..hypocalcemia in particular. Stress and changes in sleep patterns could lead to various non specific symptoms too. I would suggest that he tries to set his sleep pattern in a more organized way and if he continues to have symptoms it would be prudent to run routine tests to rule out anything serious. Hope it helps. Regards, Dr Praveen
