I have been on lipitor 10 mg for 2 weeks now. i have been getting random light tingling in small areas like my fingers, arms legs and feet. could this be from the medication? i have high anxiety also. does it sound dangerous?

Some people experience muscular discomfort from lipitor and a test called total CPK may be elevated. I've never seen statins cause neurological symptoms such as yours. The brain communicates with the skin and anxiety can cause such symptoms. If you're still concerned, consult a neurologist for evaluation & advice.

Anxiety or another disorder is more likely than Lipitor 10 mg/day to cause your symptoms
