nausea. which progressively got worse the longer i took it. it became so extreme - it was causing me to be dysfunctional. the final week it turned into extreme vomiting and diarrhea. i thought i had a flu bug that just would not go away. as soon as i quit taking the lipitor - i had my life back. i also experienced memory loss and extreme tiredness. i might also mention that i started on 10mg and experienced really no side effects. but when i was up'd to 20 mg it all started to go downhill.

pectoral chest pain- stabbing sharp pains, increasing in frequency as time passed. my cholesterol was already great at 140 with triglicerides good too. doctor wanted me to start this medication, 5mg/day, along with mavik 1mg for blood pressure (mine was already averaging 106/70)to prevent arterial damage due to my type 2 diabetes. my total cholesterol was lowered to 128 and triglicerides to 56 after a year with a 2.something ratio. heart disease runs in my mother's side of the family and bp problems and the diabetes in my dad's side. i have been on this dose for 1 year and noticed pains beginning after several months and the pains are getting more frequent and noticible. i am off the drug for a self trial period to see if the pains diminish. i am going to see the physician in a week and am going to mention the pains so i am curious as to her opinion. also a note, i am still fertile and should not be prescribed this drug due to unkown pregnancy side effects- interesting that it was prescribed to me anyway. doctor told me to go off of it if i wanted to get pregnant b.

i started taking lipitor in december 2009 and stopped after 4 months. during this time i experienced extreme pain in both shoulders, sometimes in the neck also, causing me to wake several times each night. pain was worse in the morning but rarely went away completely during the day. most mornings it was impossible to wash my hair in the shower as i was unable to reach the top of my head with my hands. pain and restricted movement often prevented me from putting on shoes and socks without assistance. in january this year i started experiencing discomfort in my left hand for the first time. now in both hands, the pain has increased, fingers are swollen and movement is restricted. my wife tells me my hands are warm to touch. the mornings are worse when they hurt the most, movement is restricted and it is impossible to make a fist. ice and ibruprofen gel help but only for a short while. i have been taking 400 mg ibruprofen 3 times daily for a couple of weeks on my doctors advice without. this drug is clearly poison to so many people and perhaps there is good reason to take pfizer to the courts. however i do believe that any doctor prescribing lipitor should make it abundantly clear to the patient that very serious consequences could ensue that would cause extreme pain and could effect quality of life. i believe that failure to do so is a serious deriliction of duty that should be tested with complaints to the medical authorities that oversee our doctors and/or the courts.

pain was worse
pain
i started taking lipitor in december 2009 and stopped after 4 months. during this time i experienced extreme pain in both shoulders, sometimes in the neck also, causing me to wake several times each night. pain was worse in the morning but rarely went away completely during the day. most mornings it was impossible to wash my hair in the shower as i was unable to reach the top of my head with my hands. pain and restricted movement often prevented me from putting on shoes and socks without assistance. in january this year i started experiencing discomfort in my left hand for the first time. now in both hands, the pain has increased, fingers are swollen and movement is restricted. my wife tells me my hands are warm to touch. the mornings are worse when they hurt the most, movement is restricted and it is impossible to make a fist. ice and ibruprofen gel help but only for a short while. i have been taking 400 mg ibruprofen 3 times daily for a couple of weeks on my doctors advice without. this drug is clearly poison to so many people and perhaps there is good reason to take pfizer to the courts. however i do believe that any doctor prescribing lipitor should make it abundantly clear to the patient that very serious consequences could ensue that would cause extreme pain and could effect quality of life. i believe that failure to do so is a serious deriliction of duty that should be tested with complaints to the medical authorities that oversee our doctors and/or the courts.

my partner is currently taking this medication liptor, he also takes high blood pressure medication, my reason for initally looking for side effects of liptor was because of my partners decreased libido and to see if there is a connection between this and the medication, however i noticed a small number of people are suffering in this way, i cannot believe the amount of things that are causing such a big problem for so many people taking this drug, my partner is normally very muscular as works out twice a week and has done for years, but over the last 6mths or so seems to have lost a lot of muscle and replacedit with fat, especially around the midrif, he also suffers from regular dioreaha and muscle pain in back and just below shoulder blades, very often also suffers from headaches, doesnt sleep very well at night at all,also gets tired a lot , my partner isnt aware of this website but i will be definetly showing this to him and advising him to perhaps stop taking this medication for a few weeks to see what the difference is , so glad to have found this site. my partner is 40.

lost a lot of muscle and replacedit with fat
muscle atrophy
my partner is currently taking this medication liptor, he also takes high blood pressure medication, my reason for initally looking for side effects of liptor was because of my partners decreased libido and to see if there is a connection between this and the medication, however i noticed a small number of people are suffering in this way, i cannot believe the amount of things that are causing such a big problem for so many people taking this drug, my partner is normally very muscular as works out twice a week and has done for years, but over the last 6mths or so seems to have lost a lot of muscle and replacedit with fat, especially around the midrif, he also suffers from regular dioreaha and muscle pain in back and just below shoulder blades, very often also suffers from headaches, doesnt sleep very well at night at all,also gets tired a lot , my partner isnt aware of this website but i will be definetly showing this to him and advising him to perhaps stop taking this medication for a few weeks to see what the difference is , so glad to have found this site. my partner is 40.
