A member asked:
What causes your hands to go numb and you to feel weak if you don't eat anything all day?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Perhaps hypoglycemia: Low blood sugar could do this, but you might be suffering other nutritional problems, even an anemia. See your doctor if this becomes a persistent issue.
