Aciphex and pins and needles

I too have been taking Aciphex for acid reflux for about three weeks and although it seems to have helped with the burning and nausea, I have just recently (four days ago) been experiencing a slew of symptoms. They include headache, blurred vision in my left eye, facial numbness, both forearms numbness, leg (knee down) numbness, and tingling sensation in head. I went to the ER yesterday due to the left arm and left side facial numbness. They ruled out heart attack, blod clot, stroke, bleeding in brain, and brain tumor via a CT scan and a host of other neurological examinations. Doctors have suggested an MRI to rule out something else neurological (MS, neurofibromatosis, etc.) that a CT scan might not pick up. Also, will do a neck MRI to rule out a bulging disc or pinched nerve. I am hoping that it is just the Aciphex.

I started on the Acphex a couple of weeks ago and have experienced itching or prickling sensation all over my body especially my scalp and legs, on the legs I have a rash that started on the calves and is now working its way up to my thighs and buttocks the rash started out as red bumps but it dry's up and starts flaking off it looks horrible and is getting worse by the day. I am going to stop taking it to see if the symptoms clear up. Also some constipation and my athsma symptoms seem worse.

About 2 years ago, I stopped Aciphex because I was getting muscle pains and ocasional pins and needles. I went Pepcid AC. About 6 months ago I decided to give Aciphex another try, feeling that maybe it wasn't causing those symptoms. Now, I've started getting ocasional pins and needles again, only worse than last time--so now I'm back on Pepcid. I hope the pins and needles go away.

Hi - I have been taking Aciphex for just over a week and have noticed that I have muscle aches in my arms and legs with ocassional pins and needles and that my face tingles. I was begining to think I had some other major illness but it just sounds like the medicine. Do many of you have the same?

I had headaches with prilosec and nexium so I switched to aciphex which is great for my headaches but I still get frequent heartburn which I guess could be a result of my esoph. ulcer which is not yet healed. I have chapped lips, sometimes anal pruritis, pins and needles in my legs and I was having very large b.m.s in the beginning but now am contstipated.
