I also recommend speaking to your doctor but tingling sensations can be a symptom of anxiety. And sometimes starting new medication can cause a short term increase in anxiety. I had severe tingling in my arms from anxiety and had to get a CT scan to rule out a stroke. Amazingly, as soon as I found out my brain was okay, my tingling went away within a day or so. Continuing to worry about it can cause the symptoms to continue and even become worse. I recommend speaking to your doctor and trying to calm down and see if your symptoms go away.

Best of luck :)

I would contact your doctor right away to see what he has to say.  Anytime something new arises you need to let him know.  He will know if it is anxiety or your medication combo.  Take care.
