What Causes Pain In The Leg And Foot With A History Of Heart Attack? Is It Related To Kidney?

Hi I am taking omeprazole 40 mg capsules and started getting pins and needles in my left leg and foot. I have just had blood tests done and the Dr s nurse rang to tell me to drink lots of water as my kidneys were doing something not quite right. I am 69years old. I am taking sotalol and asprin as I suffered from A.F and had a heart attack 18 months ago regards Cheryl

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question.
I can understand your concern.

Your pain in foot is not related to heart attack or kidney problems.

You have pain with pin and needle sensations. It can be due to diabetes or vitamin B12 deficiency.

You should check your vitamin B12 and sugar level. Also check for your creatinine level once to check kidney function.

Hope I have answered your question.
If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me.
I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you very good health.
