Cocaine in high doses affects the cardiovascular system, and may lead to death.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocaine_intoxication

I'd see a doctor. You may have had a cerebral event, in the brain that affected the right side of the brain.

Typical neuropathies are bilateral for the most part. When something happens in the brain it may be one sided only. TIAs
are transient ischemic attacks that do this.

Not eating will also give low blood sugars, which may affect the brain as well, and also the peripheral parts of the body. However that cause would not be one sided and would be instead more global.

High doses less than lethal, can give sensations of prickling or similar to bugs crawling on the skin.
Also cocaine suppresses appetite.

I'd see a doctor if after 2 days you are having problems like this.
