Hello........ Thanks for query. Relax. What you are reporting is a normal phenomenon. Hyperventilation is related to transient imbalance in the body's acid-base balance. This either results in numbing or pins & needles sensation. However, considering your social and inter-personal situation an evaluation of your coping skills, personality profile as well evaluation for an underlying mood/anxiety disorder is required. Hence, you require a consultation with a psychiatrist in this regard. Regards Dr Sundar Gnanavel Psychiatrist
