I've had this on and off over the years.
1) the major cause for me was my carpal tunnel syndrome. When that is bad, the arms go to sleep. Wearing the carpal tunnel splints may help with this.
2) my right arm has been doing this more, when I am hot, or retaining fluid like during the 97 degree day we had this weekend!
My right arm is the shingles arm also and I rather think this is a contributor too.
People with PN tend to have compressive sensitivities on many areas of the body. Mine come and go and really are worse when I feel puffy all over.
