PPI’s and pins and needles

Posted , 2 users are following.

Has anyone experienced pins and needles while taking either omeprazole or lansoprazole?? could this be B12 deficiency cause by taking PPI? Would have asked GP but they are too busy.

    I persistently had pins and needles and gentle numbness in feet, hands, arms and face during the several years in which I took Lansoprazole. Quit 12 days ago and it literally disapeared, although I am feeling some numbness again today.

      same, was definately caused by PPI, my pins and needles went away as soon as I stopped taking them.
