Default Paresthesias induced by pressure

Hello all! Hope yall are all doing well.. I am still a mystery, but I was curious if anyone had this symptom (I am thinking it sounds more like a peripheral issue, instead of central nervous system - but who knows)! I have numbness/decreased sensation all of the time,, but

I have noticed that when I use any pressure with any part of my body it goes numb and stays numb for a while - for example, if I press a button on a remote.. that finger will be extra numb for at least ten minutes.. when I sleep, if I sleep on my back, I am numb from neck down - buttocks, and anywhere that has more pressure is worse.. If I lie on my side - my entire side is numb (with the exception of my left leg, which seems to be the least symptomatic all the time).. anyhow.. I've noticed this for the past 2 years since I got hit with this mess.. curious if that is a clue to what this is? (I am on IVIG for the mystery).. Thanks in advance for any advise!
