Are you anemic? Do you feel faint/dizzy whenever you do this type of activity..
Any pain or tingling associated with the numbness and how long did it take to subside?
Come to think of it, I did notice that I was getting dizzy when I was working out in the fall. I thought that it was perhaps because I didn't eat beforehand, but I don't know. I am not diagnosed with any problems related to this dizziness/numbness.
The symptoms did not subside completely until I got back to the dorms and called it quits. I would say 20-30 minutes. Every time I sat down before I came back, it subsided a little.

Don't let this put you off, btw. Exercise is important. Good for you that you went. Try again, but a bit easier to start next time.
Well, my friends haven't done anything for just as long as I have. I was the only one that experienced these strange symptoms. I bought a pair of new shoes at the end of last semester, so I think I am good as far as shoes are concerned.
I thought maybe I had some kind of clot in my vains. You know? I eat all kinds of garbage (but I have cut back since the beginning of this semester, i.e. I have only drank about a glass of pop a week, and I've been eating fruits and veggies every day)
