What Causes Numbness In Arm, Hand And Leg?

I have been experiencing numbness in my right arm and leg. Mostly my arm and hand. I take 2 2mg can a daily. It seems to lessen the feeling after I take the xanax. Sometimes I hold off on my meds because I don t want to get addicted. No thank you. I thought this was a free service. I cannot afford the cost
