This is a problem that I experience on every cycle and have noticed a few others have also...Usually it's when I'm lying down but sometimes even when I'm sitting in front of the computer...Well, being on a big cycle could be a cause... After all, total body edema is not uncommon.. And if you are not eating ideally while using drugs like D-bol, Test, and Sustanon, or any big combo such as this, you run the risk of extremity swelling... Excess water can press on capillaries and veins that lead into the hand through the wrist, and constrict the blood’s ability to flow and feed those areas... Typically, when something falls asleep, it’s because something is pressing on its blood flow and restricting it... Tight areas can also be caused by the beginning of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) - particularly in the wrists and hands... Compressed neuropathy at the volar (under part) of the wrist joint affects the median nerve and causes the thumb, index finger and middle fingers, as well as the palm of the hand, to fall asleep... So if your problem is carpal tunnel, or you suspect that you have some repetitive injury issues (the causes of carpal tunnel) if, for instance, you work on computers or rest your wrists on a desk all day long, then you should go get them diagnosed properly and go through the necessary surgery... If it’s just generalized edema and it affects the smaller joints of the body, causing tingling and a lack of circulation, then try some estrogen blockers, diuretics or aromatase inhibitors...

Some ways to make a differential diagnosis:
1. Tap the carpal tunnel, if it zings to the fingers, its nerve entrapment.
2. Press on the radial and ulnar arteries at the same time on the palmar side of wrist, located on either side of the flexor tendons. Make a tight fist, Your hand should be white. Release the arteries, and the hand should return red in 5-7 seconds. If not, a vascular component should be considered.
Usually to thick blood.
3. Press hard onto the middle of the palmar forearm; if pain goes to the wrist, simply massage out that area (pronator teres). see picture of trigger point on Bing.
4. Take your radial pulse with arm resting on chair, lift arm up, past head height, if pulse stops, its coming from tight scalene muscle trigger points.
5. Take radial pulse, but put arm straight backward. If pulse stops, it is the posterior neck-rib junction from tight trapezius. (Wright's test). Get that massaged out.
6. Place back of hands together under your chin and hold 20 seconds. In numb to fingers, its median nerve entrapment.
CURES: If vascular, evening primrose oil, 3x day with meals,3 superphosphozyme tablets 2x day form Biotics, and massages as stated.
If nerve Dx, B6 at 200mg for 30 days. Acupuncture works well too.
