HI- it sounds like the sypmtoms of "hyperventilation"-which is when you are breathing very fast due to anxiety, pain etc.--you take in too much oxygen and your body reacts by making you feel lightheaded and pins and needles--I used to get the same thing when I used to have panic attacks-- try deep breathing to slow down your breathing--or ( and this might sound funny..) keep a paper bag handy in the br and breathe into the bag if you feel your heart racing- this will balance out the oxygen and prevent you from getting the lightheadedness and pins and needles--hope this helps!
By the way- nothing really wrong with you--sometimes just knowing that, can help you relax...
