Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your husband experience with sharp pricking pain at his arms and legs following treatment with beta blockers for irregular heart beat I am suggesting that he has developed a peripheral neuropathy
In view of this please do the test Serum thiamine to rule out this condition
Meanwhile please see a neurologist specialist for further clinical assessment and adequate drug prescription
I hope this helps Regards
