I have been taking Singulair for 5 weeks and stopped after developing high blood pressure, numbness and tingling all over my body, flushing, anxiety, memory loss/difficulty concentrating, skin burning sensations, fatigue, "heavy legs" feeling, heart palpitations. I have been off of this drug for 3 days. I still have the side effects and hope that they will go away ASAP. I am also a very well-controlled 28 year old diabetic and when I had neuropathy-like tingling sensations in my extremities (from Singulair) I became worried and angry. I am seeing a doctor tomorrow for a full exam. If this drug has caused me permanent nerve damage I intend on filing a lawsuit against the drug company.

Please tell me if your symptoms subsided since you've been off Singulair!!! I have horrible numbness/tingling all over and getting worse and worse and dr.s' have done many blood and MRI tests and all are normal and Dr. says Sorry, don't know, basically and now I have just found all this info. here and am going to stop this drug immediately!!!! I soo hope my horrible symptoms go away and if not, I would like to see about a lawsuit also...?

Please tell me - have your symptoms stopped since stopping Singulair? I have numbness/tingling in my hands and sometimes feet for over 6 months with numerous tests and doctors...I am going to stop taking it tomorrow after I call my doctor.
