Hi I'm 67 Years Old. Work Outside On My Farm.

Hi I'm 67 years old. Work outside on my farm. Am taking Coumadin (for blood clots - have factor V clotting disorder), Pravastatin for cholesteral, Omprazole for acid reflux (possible Barrets disorder), Tamsulosin for prostate, Gabapentin for nerve tingling (traditionally in heels of feet - but not all the time), and Zolpidem Tartrate for sleep. My blood sugar is slightly high (137 this AM) and am trying to control this condition thru a lower carb diet. Other than a few other annoying things (such as tinnitis), I'm alive, vertical and active.

In recent months (infrequently) I've been experiencing (as I am now and yesterday) a sensation of tingling primarily in my legs and even a somewhat cold sensation at times. What I'm trying to get a handle on is this possibly a side effect of one of my medications or another health issue that I need to address? I looked at the possible side effects on all of my medication sheets and tingling etc. does not seem to be mentioned. If you have any advice, I'd appreciate it. I will probably make an appointment with my PCP this week to get their opinion. Thanks.
