Is Side Effect Of Lamictal Causing Numbness In Tip Of Tongue?

Hi Doc, I have been feeling the tip of my tongue slightly numbed for 2 days now. I get a little scared about these things because I had a right temporal lobectomy 2010. I don t know if it could be because of the surgery or maybe side effect of Lamictal. What do you think?
