Feet maybe, hands no:
The sciatic nerve runs from the gluteal region (your rear end) down the back of your leg, then branches to innervate the back of the thigh and leg as well as the outer part of the lower leg and then parts of the feet. An injury may cause those symptoms there, as well as problems with motion.
The major nerves that serve the hands are the radial, ulnar and median.

Tingling in hands and feet for over a week. Mild pain. Low platelet count but other than that doctor couldn't find anything wrong. Any ideas?

Follow up:
Mild tingling can be caused by many things....yet it may be transient. If it gets worse and does not resolve in 4-6 weeks then you need follow up evaluation from your doctor.
