Please : Please see your doctor and have a complete evaluation. Your vital sign should be checked and you may need an ekg and other testing. Describe your symptoms to your doctor; it may be helpful to write them down first. Dizziness and left arm numbness are concerning symptoms and you need a complete evaluation. If you had worsening symptoms, any chest pain, felt faint or pass out, then you would have to go to the er.

Yes: Arm numbness can be associated with cardiac and other chest issues, since pain is often referred, and also can be associated with something pressing on the nerves as they exit the spine, or go through the axilla (armpit), or further down the arm. It is not normal, and if has been persistent, you should see your health care provider.
