tingling arm
by megan121, Feb 19, 2008 08:13PM
I just recently started taking Methylin ER (Ritalin SR) 20 mg twice a day for ADD. I have no clue if the two are connected but the past 2 days I have experienced this tingling sensation in my arms. It started in my sleep where I felt this pain as if my circulation was bein cut off and my arm was bent, so I laid with it straight but it continued until it felt like pins and needles. It stopped but then started back up today while driving, my arm was also bent so I thought it had something to do with that however, it seems to stay the same even when I straighten it and stand up right. Nothing seems to help, I thought maybe it could be akathisia, a known side effect, but it doesnt really seem to fit. Any suggestions?
