Weird Sensation in arms and legs.

[Emelia]

Hello everyone,
A little about me,
I suffer from anxiety, panic, and depression.
I have been on ativan 1mg -ish daily since last december and the past two weeks started Prozac.
Lately I have felt this weird sensation in my arms and legs. It most often occurs right after I awake in the morning or from a deep sleep/nap but I also tend to feel it when I've gone a bit too long without my ativan dose. The sensation feels like my legs or arms get numb or heavy and like they will twitch but they never do. Sometimes I will feel pins and needles. Could this be anxiety? I have a follow up with my doctor today and I will be bringing this up to him, but wanted to ask in here if anyone knows what I'm talking about.

See what he says, it could be anxiety or a side effect of the meds x

My first ever experience with anxiety was a heavy numb feeling in both arms & legs with pins & needles x

I get the tingling pins and needles sensations mainly in my arms with anxiety and especially when I'm having a panic attack.

Ty everyone. He looked into the side effects and told me he doesn't see anything relating and that he doesn't think its the Prozac. Surprisingly since then it hasn't happened. Maybe I just needed reassurance that the new drug was ok. :) I have somewhat of a hard time starting new meds.
