Now how come when YOU write that "D" word it comes out??????? When I write it it's starred out! This is WEIRD!!!!!! I have to use the word "spots"!
OK, to answer the question. This seems to be the only eye problem I've never had, but I've heard alot about "visual snow" - check that out - either on google or on these boards, see if you can relate (it's really common!)

Have you had your blood pressure checked recently? If not, you might want to do that. That is a common symptom of high blood pressure (especially since you mentioned the tingling.) I don't want to freak you out, but I would find a way to have your bp taken.

Sounds like they are "floaters" and perfectly normal. Mine are black spots that travel with my eye wherever I look. I was freaked out at first and at my last eye dr. appt, the optician said I was fine. So go to an eye doc too --to calm you down, cause I'm sure it's nothing. Good Luck!!!
BTW you can have tingling and numbness in your arms if you are freaking out about it---anxiety atack symptoms include what you were saying happened to you.
