after a few months i started having pain in different areas of my body and headaches almost everyday. now i am in servere pain everywhere and trouble sitting or standing or sleeping because staying still increases pain so i have to keep moving around. frequent headaches and stomache aches, daily. go from extremely tired for days and nights to unable to sleep until 5 and wake up at 7 and anxiety all day. i have to take two cholosterol medications because lipitor doesn't work by itself. i definitely would not recommend taking lipitor. i keep telling the np that i don't like it but she says its working so i have to stay with it.

vaginal bleeding and cramping 2 years after menopause. while this helped some with the joint pain, i was unpleasantly surprised at the return of my period after 2 years. i had severe endometriosis and adenomyosis all my life, plus the impairment in blood clotting due to eds, so my doctor probably should not have prescribed this drug. i'm not taking any more tablets. cymbalta 120 mg per day helps enough with the pain.

after taking it for 3-4 months i had terrible pains in knee, ankle, big toe. couldn't walk or even sleep comfortably. i thought i had gout, which runs in my family. hmo doctors said not gout, but didn't know what. i finally stumbled on this web site, and thought it might be lipitor. i stopped taking it and immediately got some relief. that was a month and a half ago. still have some pain and other weird symptoms (eg. popping) in knee, ankle, big toe joints, but it is gradually getting less. this drug is too dangerous to use. we need something with the same good effects, but not the danger.

severe pain and severe limitation in movement in upper arm muscles; memory deficits and mental fogginess; worsening cataract; parkinson's-type tremor in left hand. two weeks after discontinuing mevacor, the muscle pain was very much improved (full range of motion took a year to recover); tremor disappeared; vision in eye awaiting cataract surgery improved to pre-mevacor level (my eye surgeon said that he had seen existing cataracts made more severe by statins in other patients as well); noticed distinct improvement mental function in two weeks. there have been reports of worsening of gum disease as well, which i had had and which did improve. if you read the research carefully, there is reason to believe that higher levels of cholesterol are associated with lower overall mortality rather than higher, especially in older women. cholesterol is an important part of brain tissue and many essential biochemicals, and that serum cholesterol levels do not correlate well with arterial placque.

after 2 weeks, i had such pain in my knees, i could not even get out of a chair or walk across the room. i stopped and waited for a month and tried again; the same effect only within 48 hours. i had the same problem with 3 other statin drugs. after seeing so much about this drug in periodicals and such, i will just have to take my chances on healthy diet; my cholesterol is mostly genetic so i am stuck until they come out with a drug that does not cause joint pain. zetia only helps with food induced cholesterol so is of no use to me. and i refuse to take a pill to counteracat the side effects of another pill. it seems that's just what the fda wants us to do.

sick to my stomach
abdominal discomfort
feels like menstrual cramps, back ache, sick to stomach for 24 hours +. was unhappy about being prescribed this but gave it a try since the pharmacy couldn't take it back (mistake -- didn't read about it until after i'd picked up the prescription). after taking pill with food, feels like menstrual cramps, lower back pain & nausea within 45 minutes. after the last pill, have been sick to my stomach for over 24 hours. discontinuing use immediately. have heard great things about celebrex. maybe will ask for that.

fluids pooling in my lower extremeties - especially my feet, general muscle soreness. i take several meds for rheumatoid arthritis and none of these medications have affected me in this way. my rheumatology office suggested i check with my pcp immidiately.

muscle weakness in my legs
muscular weakness
i have never been so miserable in my life. started out with severe back spasms, then had intense pain in my knees and spasms all throughout my legs. weakness in my right arm. the worst of all was feeling like i was walking through waist-deep mud, i simply could not walk. extreme anxiety as well. i had no idea what an evil poison this is. my doctor never told me any of the side effects but since then i have learned of so many people with the same problems. taking 200 mg/day of coq10 has helped immensely as well as the potassium of bananas.

slight stomach upset became worse and resulted in a perforated ulcer which nearly killed me! i will never be perfectly well again! my gastrc surgeon put the blame firmly on this drug. i was fit, 48 and ate an excellent diet. it did help my arthritis, but in my opinion the possibility of side effects was not taken very seriously. it can kill you: post operatively i suffered bleeding, peritonitis, septicaemia,renal and respiratory failure. i was sent home wearing 2 stoma bags and 3 wound dressings, weighing four stone!(56 lbs).
