I feel like I have tingling in my arms and blotchy hands and
decreased blood flow on both sides but especially my left when
I add any kind of weight to my backpack. Otherwise I'm fine
w/o the pack. I've had this problem for 20 yrs. Anyone have
this problem? What is going on?

Well, it sounds like your backpack, when weighted, is restricting the circulation in your arms and/or pressing on one or more nerves. The result is what you are experiencing; tingling sensation (nerve transmision interference) with blotchy skin (restricted blood flow).
You need to evaluate how the straps are sitting on your shoulders and either increase padding or redistribute the load or purchase a different backpack.
