What Causes Sudden Numbness And Tingling Sensation In The Right Arm?

Hello I have been having sudden numbness and tingling in my right arm so my dr referred me to a neurologist. I had that appt today and she said from the way things looked as she was doing the tests my neves are good. According to the info on this site the next most likely cause is a TIA, is there a test my doctor can do to see if this is the case?
