Burning skin sensation

My mother is on a medication that treats high triglycerides. She is also on BP medication and other meds I do not know of at the moment. She is complaining of a burning sensation in her skin...all over her body.  Has anyone had this problem or know of anyone who has?  She thinks it is the triglyceride medication because it started about 2 days after she started taking it.

It is possible that this is a reaction to the medication.  My father had this reaction after he started Niacin, a medication for his cholesterol.  I called the doctor and found out that it was a normal reaction to the medication and it went away a few days later.  You should call her doctor and find out if this is a normal reaction to the medication she is taking,.
