Tongue paresthesia: Numbness, tingling sensation, and other symptoms involving the tongue are not uncommon side effects of amytriptiline (elavil). Keep in mind that combination of headache and tongue numbness may be due to a linked and more serious neurological condition and not necessarily be from the amytriptiline.
