Could Numb, Tingly Hnads With Racing Heart Along With Diagnosed Lupus Indicate SLE?

Tested positive for lupus anticoagulant and my Dr has a suspicion that I have sle. Waiting to see a rheumatologist.

Right now I'm lying down and my hands keep going numb/tingly and that happens right after my heart races then slows down and pressure is in my chest cavity. It feels like a cycle.


Not sure what this is and it's worrying me.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really understand your problem, the symptoms that you have described here are not the symptoms of SLE, if you have history of tingling, and tingling then cervical spine problem could be there, you can use cervical collar, and this will give nice result but I would advise you to get it confirm and for that either you have to get done the x-ray of cervical spine, hope this information helps you, have nice day.
I find this answer helpful
