My right arm is completly numb and I panic out of my bed sometimes. The reason is that I fall asleep on my shoulder and sometimes it takes a minute til it functions again.

Last night I fell asleep again and woke up and it it took longer than usual to get it back to moving. I started crying and was totally panic mode.

Is this something that can cause long term issues if this happens frequently or should I change the way I sleep? Can I ignore it?

Depends on where in Canada.

Yes it’s free.

In Toronto you’re looked after and it’s the dream.

In Quebec a doctor will happily step over you if you don’t speak French.

In BC: sure, the medical is free. But good luck finding a doctor.

And in the small print: Oh but actually they don’t see teeth or eyes as a real issue that gets covered. If you need a root canal just take an advil. Forever.
