I'm taking Lambrinex 40mg. Is it possible that the drug has contributed to high blood pressure, muscle aches, cramps, tingling finger and insomnia. In addition, I have a feeling of "noodles" in my throat, and cold sweats with chills. I'm just mentally shattered.

Thank you for sharing your case. Please remember that side effects of medications should be reported to your doctor or individually.
Atorvastatin (brand name - Lambrinex) is a medication used to treat high cholesterol and other lipids. The symptoms you have described (muscle aches, cramps, tingling of the fingers) may be the result of side effects of atorvastatin, although some of these symptoms are not typical of this drug.
A lumpy throat sensation, cold sweats with chills, and insomnia can have a variety of causes, and the diagnosis may need to be evaluated by a doctor. If you do not have the possibility of an in-person visit, I encourage you to take advantage of the teleconsultation, e.g. via the Gdziepolek.pl portal:

I encourage you to report an adverse reaction if you haven't already done so: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane
