I also work in the medical field. Although my field of study does not include palytoxin (PLTX) I would direct you all to a study from a more reputable source for information. I suggest personal accounts of interactions with zoanthids and palys do not constitute enough scientific proof one way or the other, nor do they make one an expert in the field of medicine.

You might as well have compressed a nerve or something like that and that's where the tingling and numbness came from. It could have been that you are having other more serious issues with your blood vessel and that might come back, if that's the case. I don't think a left arm going numb has anything to do with zoanthids.
If you do a search in google for numbness left arm you will find a lot of possible reasons, but no zoanthid. I would go see my doctor if I were you...as this can hide something nasty, like an upcoming hearth attack.
