when you were sitting, your legs' blood flow was being cut off b/c the circulation wasn't working as well (= your feet "fell asleep"). feeling like you are losing your balance is just your body readjusting to a new position. your fluid in your ears is being stabalized again.

basically, to avoid this, get up slowly, not quickly

What is the cause of a tingle in the fingertips on waking?

Tingling in the fingertips upon waking is often due to poor circulation or pressure placed on the nerves while sleeping, such as from sleeping in an awkward position that compresses the nerves. It could also be a sign of conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome or peripheral neuropathy.


Can your butt cheeks fall asleep?

It's possible. Pressure on the blood vessels can reduce the feeling - when you shift position or stand up, normal blood-flow returns, and the tingle is the blood filling the constricted vessels again.


Your hand tingles and you shake and your lips and tongue tingle after you have eaten something sweet it goes?

These symptoms could indicate a sensitivity or an allergic reaction to the sweet food you've eaten. It's best to consult a doctor or allergist to determine the cause and ensure your safety.


What symptoms are there for restless leg syndrome?

People that have restless leg syndrome (RLS) usually feel something in their legs that cause them to get up and walk around. Generally, their legs will tingle, itch or ache, although some others have reported numbness rather than feeling. It is possible that you have RLS, but you should check with your doctor first.


Why does it tingle when you hit your funny bone?

Hitting your funny bone actually involves hitting the ulnar nerve, located near the elbow. The tingling sensation is due to the impact causing the ulnar nerve to be compressed, leading to a temporary disruption in nerve signaling. This can result in a tingling or electric shock-like feeling in the arm and hand.
