Is it parathesis? Sorry I have no idea how to spell it but it's very common especially with certain medication.

Aw dont worry you'll be fine. It's hard. The other day I had this in my left thumb and for some reason I get more panicky when it's in my left side! It's subsided now anf at the moment I am currently fretting over the white rings on my nails :huh:

I have the tingly/numb/heavy feeling in my left side a lot. The first few weeks on 20mg Citalopram cured it, but it came back so I am now on 30mg. I also get pain in the soles of my feet.

It comes on a lot more if I focus on it. If my mind is distracted then the tingling goes.

Hi Liviguy, I have just started Citalopram so hopefully this should stop for me too.

Hi KeeKee. White marks on your nails is a calcium thing, or if you bite your nails your teeth can leave 'imprints' which appear white (well does on me anyway).

Drink lots of milk lol
