Hey guys 

So today I went to the doctor and told him. I actually went to get my arm numbness/tingling. I went regarding my numbness/tingling feeling, just as a precaution. I first told him that I had been experiencing numbness and tingling sensation in my arms. He checked and asked my questions about my diet and lifestyle. I told him that my diet has been crappy lately and I haven't been exercising. He mentioned that I am possibly lacking a couple of necessary vitamins and showing all the symptoms for that. 

I did my best to be as clear as possible about what I experience and he said that it does look like any nerve damage.

Then I also mentioned that I had been cupping and this is a recent change in my lifestyle. He asked what part of my body I used it on, after a couple times of him asking me I just told him that I use it on my breasts. Then I explained a little bit about the system, how I use it, the typical temporary red ring marks that we all experience and how it does suck in some of the armpit fat as well and domes put pressure on my arm pit. I also explained that my arm does feel numb while the system is on and that it is quite a strong system. He said that at this stage it doesn't look like any nerve damage and doubts that it could the cupping causing this.

He also said that he can't make any comments on the system because there hasn't been any scientific research on it, which is the typical response from a doctor. He recommended that I stop using the system for a month, eat healthy, take my vitamin tablets, exercise and see if the symptoms persist. Also, if I still wish to experiment with the system then I use it after all my symptoms are gone, if I still experience the numbness and tingling then I should stop.

Guys I am not advocating the use of system or advising against the use of NB, I just thought I should add this here as well because many of us are understandable embarrassed to talk to a doctor about this.

Hope you’ll get better soon. 
I’m also going through the same situation but, not that much strong. I stoped for one month and I just started for few mints. But, even first day night I woke up with numbness. I dont know if it was by pressure of my head on arms. What I concluded from this is once it got damaged it is not a good idea to continue noogle. It will cause more damage thereby recovery won’t be easy ! 
I think when we pump for long time it will enlarge our blood vessels ( not in volume, but thought length, these enlarged blood vessel can also put pressure on nerves. I dont know how this enlarged blood vessel affect blood flow, make it fast or slow!!
