extreme muscle pain in arms and shoulders particularly in bed at night. i was on a very high dose (80mg)as i had two heart attacks attributable to blockages. i have been off them for 4 weeks with only a small amount of improvement. i have heard it can take several months to get back to any where near normal.

after taking for about 1 yr, i noticed muscle pain and weakness in both arms on and off. i ache 24 hrs a day. this is now continous for about 6 weeks. i called md today, he said stop taking lipitor immediately and sent me to lab for blood tests to determine if any damage done to liver, muscles or heart. i wish i had called md sooner. hope if any damage, it is reversible.

on lipitor immediately after heart attack. did not realize how stunned i was mentally and physically, till i stopped taking it because of extreme muscle weakness. mental clarity, reading comprehension, short term memory improved quickly and chest and heart feels normal again. have been off lipitor for 3 weeks and have not needed nitro since. still have soreness and weakness in thighs from walking short distances and am still not as sharp mentally as i was previously. suspect slip in vision related to lipitor since vision is slowing improving. the worst thing about this insidious drug was that i did not realize how badly it was effecting me! thought that this was how bad you felt after a heart attack and that i was tolerating the medication well.

a friend om mine took lipitor (all statins have similar side effects). he suffered terrible pains in hips, legs, hands etc lost his muscular strength, had difficulties to swallow, problems with tinnitus and memory. the problems appeared little by little over the years. the best thing you can do for yourself and others is to educate yourself on this - and other medical issues. read books, read patient stories and look at the lipitor paradox at u-tube. it`s a very funny and sad story. also visit spacedoc.net for more information about side effects.

can cause a little stomach discomfort so take with food or milk. this has only happened to me when i've taken it on an empty stomach or accidentally took 2 pills in a 24 hour period. i have been taking voltaren for approx 8 years to help me battle gout. it is most effective when taken at first sign of gout symptoms. my doctor has me get a blood test every six months to make sure my liver and kidneys are ok.

severe b/l shoulder pain, general weakness, malaise, and slight memory loss. i started out at 10 mg every day for 7 years, 20 mg for 1 year, 40 then 80 for over 1 1/2 years. over the past year, b/l shoulder pain to the point of wearing a sling because it hurt badly when i walked. i read about the shoulder pain in assorted sites on the web. discussed it with my pa and cardiologist. my pa stopped the lipitor. the pain lessened but did not stop. went to a ortho md who gave me 3 steroid shots and pt. it seemed to help but pain would not stop. narcs were ordered which helped somewhat but wasn't the answer. mri showed a slight linear tear in my rotator cuff which he wanted to do surgery. decided against surgery. both shoulders started to feel better but still couldn't sleep on my left side. my ldl's were through the roof. after almost 10 months off lipitor, my general md talked me into starting sinivastatin 40 mg every day. well, guess what happened. my shoulder pain suddenly worsen, especially left side. i am going to speak with my cardiologist again and explore alternatives and will be stopping my statin today! moral of the story. stay clear of statin medications.
