I really don't otherwise feel qualified to weigh in on your fit. I'm much more familiar with how a road bike is supposed to fit; not a hybrid or MTB.
I'm basically with Indy, I don't have much knowledge about how hybrids are supposed to look.

But, two things that occur to me (and others can feel free to jump in and tell me I'm wrong ):

1-- looks like you could maybe raise your seat a hair? if I'm right about that, it will feel more efficient and who knows, maybe it could help with the foot numbness. also to my eye (which is not highly trained), you look a bit far forward from a KOPS perspective, so moving the seat back might not hurt either. (remember that height and setback offset each other though, so if you move up, move forward a little, or back less than you would have. maybe a clearer way of explaining it: if your seat is at the correct height for your position and you decide to move it back, you will also want to lower it a hair. if your seat is a little low already, and you move it back, you might still want to raise it, but less than you would have).

2 -- In another thread Oakleaf said something about longer stems sometimes helping to relieve wrist pain... again, I don't know anything about hybrid fit really, but just at a glance it looks like your wrists are bent a bit. I wonder if a stem with less rise that put you out a bit further might not put your wrists in a more neutral position. It's a toss-up, because that will also tend to put a bit more weight on your hands, which could exacerbate the problem... but it might be worth a try. This may be because I'm used to looking at road bikes, but the cockpit looks a bit cramped, and more space might actually increase your comfort.

A related question I had looking at your picture is the following: how does it feel when you stand to pedal? Do you feel unstable or like you're hanging out too far over your front axle? If so, a longer stem might help.
