What Causes Numbness In The Left Leg While On Norvasc?
My mother has been started on Norvasc for her high blood pressure. She had an experience of left leg not working the day after starting the medication. She does have severe arthritis which causes weakness in especially her left leg. She takes only over the counter Tyelonel for her arthritis. I don t find her symtpoms on the side accects list.

Hello,
It is not related to Norvasc.
We have to rule out possible causes like peripheral neuropathy.
Consult a neurologist and get evaluated.
A detailed evaluation is required to find out the exact cause.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
