What Causes Left-sided Numbness In The Hand And Arm?

I am frequently getting the sensation in my left hand and arm that it is falling asleep . This happens various times during the day. It started about two months ago. Is this a blood circulation issue? I had two stents put in my LAD three years ago.

Hello
Thank you for using healthcaremagic
I read your question and understood your concern
It looks like this is a central nervous system problem ( head and neck) may or may not be related with blood circulation.
i think you should do MRI of the head and neck and see the neurologist specialist.
I wish you quick recovery
