Hello,

Losartan causes tingling and numbness of the arm, legs and lips as its side effect.
Consult with your doctor and change to other anti-hypertensive medicine.

Secondly you're having hypertensive neuropathy and My advice would be to take Gabapentin for neurological pain.

keep arthritis under control with low dose steroids, physiotherapy.
