extremely dry mouth, severe joint aches, muscle cramps in lower legs, sever swelling of feet, hands and ankles, difficulty breathing, tired, memory loss, mild depression, diminished eyesight. while these symptoms crept up on me over an 18 month period, i like many people assume it's an age thing . i just turned 50 and family and friends would laugh about my forgetfulness. the severity of that memory failure frightened me enough to do extensive research on lipitor. i stopped taking it the next day and within 72 hours my swelling decreased significantly, muscle aches and joint pain disappeared, memory loss is not as severe, breathing is easier, stamina is back etc i mentioned these same things to my cousin who has since stopped taking it as well. she can't thank me enough for giving her life back! i haven't told my doctor yet, she doesn't like when i am informed. need to change doctors.

blurred vision, dizziness, brain. i will never, ever take lipitor again. i have been on it for more than four years. i've taken myself off of it twice. most recently, been taking 80 mg. for two weeks. enough already! i can't tell you how i regained my sanity when i found this on the web. do your own research - don't blindly follow doctors who just push pills without regard to long term damage. this is the number one prescribed medicine in the us right now, don't expect it to go away unless we stand against pfizer and the fda.

was on provachol. dr switched me to lipitor since he said it was more effective. after 78 days on lipitor, i had constant low level pain in my butt and upper thighs. strong pain would come and go randomly. there would be spikes of pain so severe that i felt like i would collapse. would have to stop standing/walking and sit down for 5 or 10 minutes. after i stopped taking lipitor, the pain gradually subsided over a 9 month period. i was pain free for a few months, but the same pain has returned and has been with me for the past 5 months. i now wonder if this is a chronic pain condition.

extreme muscle pain
pain
bouts of extreme forgetfulness, extreme muscle pain, insomnia, tremors, cluster headaches,kidney pain, urinary problems. became unable to walk without a cane, unable to sleep, kidney problems (urine like root beer). i had a high stress detail oriented job that i lost due to inability to think fast enough to manage. i went from being a smee (subject matter expert)to crying in front of my computer unable to function. couldn't find words, got lost on way to grocery store etc dr kept telling me it couldn't be any of the meds i was on. finally googled symptoms and first hit was spacedoc and there was my answer. within 2 days of stopping i had noticeable mental improvement. i stopped it 8 weeks ago and still have much muscle pain and fatigue. kidneys have cleared, but will still give me problems if i fatigue myself. i think it is a poison, some people do need statans i guess, but not me!.

hyperhidrosis
chronic pain in all my joints and muscles. really bad in my thighs. i had been on pravachol for aboout 3 years and switched to lipitor because it's supposed to lower triglycerides too. i had the joint and muscle pain already and was told it was arthritis or neuropathy (i'm also a diabetic). my thighs were never this sore before i started the lipitor, though. both of my parents died at from heart disease at a relatively young age (dad-57, mom-66), but if this is what is causing this pain i think i would rather die prematurely than live like this. i am 41 and feel like i'm 81. i came across this site while searching for lipitor side effects. i was also going to do a search on ms or fibromyalgia, but maybe i should just quit taking this medicine and take my chances.

myalgia
severe myalgia. symptoms developed and progressed gradually, but stopped within one week of stopping lipitor. very effective at lowering cholesterol but if you are prone to muscle inflammation or other connective tissue pain (due to rheumatoid arthritis or fibromyalgia for example) i would be very cautious. my symptoms developed gradually enough that i assumed i was relapsing with rheumatoid arthritis -- i was astounded to find the problem was lipitor. i had lesser problems with pravochol but have come to distrust all statins. i am focusing on diet, time-release naicin, and fish oil instead.

knee and hip joint pain. had experienced knee joint pain in past, but never hip. stopped taking lipitor ten days ago; joint symptoms were gone within four days for first time in six weeks (been on it four months). remaining issue is chest spasm -- have been through tests ruling out heart, gerd, pneumonia, etc spasms persist although less and less. last 48 hours, epsiodes seemed to increase again but may be attributable to some combination of muscle weakness and heavy non-stop rains we've enjoyed for several days. cholesterol news is great -- two days after i stopped, cholesterol was measured at 172 with excellent hdl, ldl and triglyceride levels -- down from 295 in may, consistent with the last ten years of cholesterol readings for me. tests also showed no calcium build-up on my arteries one week ago. was on a dose of 40 mg. will see how muscle symptoms are in a month and try to resume at 10 mg. does anyone know how long they think it should take symptoms to go away?.

brain fog and decreased cognitive skills. does wonders for reducing ldl cholestrol. short term memory and brain fog were brutal. since i also have anxiety issues, i was not sure if lipitor caused side effects. stopped liptor and improved diet and memory improved.

i only took 20 mg daily for 2 weeks - several days after stopping my toes went into muscle spasms. don't know it there was any connection. after only 2 weeks on lipitor, my total cholesterol fell from 306 to 178; ldl fell from 178 to 70; and, my hdl went from 116 to 89 (didn't like this result, but did like the change in the ldl). overall the results were significant. i will start taking it again as my cardiologist has encouraged me to stay on the medication. after reading many of the comments in this website, i will remain cautious and look for side effects. thank you to all the people who took the time to write and to the people who set up this website. will write again after taking it for a couple of months.
