I do. Mine is a neurological thing. IIRC you have a problem with your spine? Could have something to do with it. Poor blood circulation can also cause it.
I don't suppose it would help to ask you to see a doctor? I will anyway

Hey I thought you were the cool internet kid
 IIRC is inet shorthand for If I recall correctly or... I may be wrong but... Oh and that might be caused by a repetitive motion thing too. And you better not leave  |

I actually just went to the doctor for this today! All I can say is, if it's your pinky and your ring finger, it's more than likely your ulnar nerve. That's what mine is. I got it pinched somehow. I also know, that carpal tunnel can cause tingling in fingers, but I believe it's around your thumb that it tingles the most.
That's all I can say about it.

I have had this as an anxiety reaction/panic attack. Sometimes it included my lower arms also. For me it was harmless and improved over time and with therapy.

It could be a side-effect from one of your meds, or a nutritional deficiency.

Prickly tingling sensations in the hands and feet is one of the earliest signs of central nervous system damage from drinking too much, if you're a drinker.

It can also be a sign of diabetes and neuropathy.
That being said....there are tons of things that could cause numbness and tingling in your hands or feet or anywhere else on your body. The absolute best thing to do is to go to your doc and get evaluated. They can rule out things or rule in things and it's much better then getting ideas from us (our experiences) as they may not be anywhere close to what is going on with you. ((((( puffy ))))) I hope you can see your doc soon and get it figured out. Please keep us updated!

Like others have said, the sensation most likely is a nerve issue. The most common cause is spending excessive time with a keyboard and mouse!!! It is really important to stop using the computer for a couple days to see if the sensation goes away!!! If you are spending to much time on the computer with this sensation and continue, you are going to cause long term damage to the nerves!
