sudden knee pain 2 week into it, horriable crippeling pain hit both knees at same moment, progressed to odd painful, lumpy swelling on both feet in same place on each and a sudden horriable grabbing pain in one ankle, gas, indigestion, acid reflux, no energy, confusion, stumbeling, vertigo, memory loss, frequent sudden urges to go pee that came out with a force that sprayed everywhere. (off of it i now have to force it out). getting off cleared most up but woke up every morning with horriable pain in a different joint making it useless until it passed days later and suddenly landed in right shoulder. mri shows arthritis, tendonitis and burscitis when there was never any problems in that shoulder before. been suffering with that for almost a year. sudden grabbing pain in ankle comes and goes. horriable pain that almost throws me down. have days where confusion comes back also. also my last colonscopy turned up 5 precancerous polyups. before statin drugs, i never had a one of them, 5 year. this medicine is posion! we do not know if the damage it does to us is permenant or not. i feel like i have been cheated out of growing old naturally and will question every ailmant i have from now on as natural or statin induced. in my whole life, i didn't see a doctor as much as i have since i started lipitor drugs and since i have been off of it. the doctor always brushed off my complaints or would write me a rx for another dangerous drug! when are doctors going to listen to the people are paying him to treat them and quit believing those who profit from the sale of their drugs they push on unsuspecting people.

some addedd gas/wind. (cont'd - pt.2) according to my 'gp' (dr), the uk male 'desireable target' is 5.1 mmol/litre or 196 mg/decilitre. docs now actually like you to be lower than that if possible. in 1977 (at age 28) with a 'count' of 10mmol/l (385mg/dl), a very careful low-chol. diet made virtually no difference to my count. so i went onto zocor (new-ish then) and remained on it for 21 years, finally on a dose of 40mg/day with no real side effects - it lowered my count to 5.6mmol/l. as my count started to rise again to 7.8 in 1997 (at age 48), i switched to lipitor, starting with 20mg/day and then 40mg/day which dropped my count a lot to just 5.1mmol/l and with an hdl 'good cholesterol' count of 1.6. after a 3-week holiday without pills, my count rose to 10.4, so i went back onto 40mg/day of lipitor - but my count was still only 6.7, so i put myself onto 80mg/day lipitor and my count went down to 5.5 - this is the highest dose recommended. i've been on this.

up until 3 weeks ago i was taking lipex another member of the statin family - reduced my cholesterol very satisfactorily. however - over time, the following symptoms developed - pain in hips cannot walk even a short distance due to pain. legs felt like they had run a marathon! deep bruising - i thought i was just being clumsy. joint pain in spine, hips and elbows. exhaustion. a colleague asked if i was on cholesterol medication and informed me there could be a connection - i found this website - amazed at all the similarities to me - i thought i was going mad!!! i came of lipex 3 weeks ago, muscles feel better, energy levels picking up, but hip pain still throbbing. i also felt like an old woman, i have over the years been to physiotherapists and chiropractors who did not know what to do - recently diagnosed with bursitis in the hips had 2 cortizone injections - still suffering severe hip pain and cannot walk more than 5 yards. doctor agreed i could be having severe side effects of statin drug - has insisted i need my cholesterol attended to - has now put me on bezalip (no relation to statins so i am told) i haven't filled the script yet - need to do more research. my heart goes out to all of you!.

up until 3 weeks ago i was taking lipex another member of the statin family - reduced my cholesterol very satisfactorily. however - over time, the following symptoms developed - pain in hips cannot walk even a short distance due to pain. legs felt like they had run a marathon! deep bruising - i thought i was just being clumsy. joint pain in spine, hips and elbows. exhaustion. a colleague asked if i was on cholesterol medication and informed me there could be a connection - i found this website - amazed at all the similarities to me - i thought i was going mad!!! i came of lipex 3 weeks ago, muscles feel better, energy levels picking up, but hip pain still throbbing. i also felt like an old woman, i have over the years been to physiotherapists and chiropractors who did not know what to do - recently diagnosed with bursitis in the hips had 2 cortizone injections - still suffering severe hip pain and cannot walk more than 5 yards. doctor agreed i could be having severe side effects of statin drug - has insisted i need my cholesterol attended to - has now put me on bezalip (no relation to statins so i am told) i haven't filled the script yet - need to do more research. my heart goes out to all of you!.

a few weeks after taking lipitor my ankles and the soles of my feet feels like i was walking on hot coals i blamed my new shoes i bought. so i bought a new pair from the chemist they didn't stop the pain either. i was at a local club about 2 months later walked into the toilet i'd been in there many times before but this i couldn't work out witch door to walk out(i think it also has an effect on your memory). also i suffer badly from muscle pain from my neck & shoulders to my lower back. my wife also took lipitor but has since stopped but it effected her a lot worse than me. she has since stopped taking any medication it's been 6 months and still recovering from the effects. i am now taking ezetrol a lot better. i still get pains in my back but not as bad. i just wish the doctors would tell you about the side affects to expect.

i took lipitor for 6 weeks and noticed extreme dehydration and extremely dry eyes. my eyes are so dry that they stick to the eyelids at night and i am getting microabrasions on them - very painful. additionally, despite eating a pure fiber diet to lower my cholesterol, the medicine has made me extremely constipated. i have been off now for 5 days. the constipation is starting to go away as are the dry eyes although they are still quite painful. i have started the blood type diet for my blood type (a) and will lower my cholesterol naturally since i cannot fathom being on lipitor after my experience with it. i would not recommend this medicine to anyone.

after about 4 years of taking lipitor i started experiencing severe leg cramping at night with the pain traveling to my buddocks and stomach as well. the pain was so bad i could not get out of the bed and had to crawl to get to the bathroom to take advil for the pain. i asked my doctor what could have caused this and he said it was probably from the lipitor. recently i experienced extreme stomach pain that stretched to my side and back. the stomach pain came suddenly and it would come and go for a week before it became so bad i could not sleep. i had just gotten over a urinery tract infection and i thought it had returned but the symptoms were different. i still had the urge to urinate constantly but it would come and go and i would have no symptoms for a day then it would return again. i remembered reading the phamplet that comes with the prescription drugs and it mentioning some of symptoms that i was experiencing. i stopped taking the lipitor for a day and i did not have any mor. i think there should be a better alternative to lowering cholesterol than such a potent drug that can cause so many side effects. i don't want to be a case-study when they finally take this drug off the market.

after taking lipitor for 1 week, my resting pulse jumped to between 100 and 105, and i started experiencing dizziness, lack of energy (tireness), and unexplained sweating. the doctor said these were not listed as known possible side effects. but after one (1) month my resting pulse had jumped to about 120 and the dizziness has become both more frequent and more pronounced. have discontinued lipitor and will not take it for 1 month to see if symptoms disappear. other symptoms which started occurring after a few days of lipiltor include sever leg muscle pain, swelling of the lower legs and feet, and even more sudden and pronounced sweating at random, unexplained times. my physical (6 days before starting the lipitor) was perfectly normal except for the cholestorol which had jumped from 175 to 220, primarily due to changed job/work conditions/diet/lack of exercise. have appointment to see doctor again next week. and will discuss further with her. there has been some increase in jo. i discussed lipitor with two friends who are both teaching pharmacologists. both had heard similar stories about lipitor and they had each heard of all of these symptoms being connected with it (fwiw, i have a large number of hypersensitivities to several other drugs [as well as to alcohol], so this was not a big surprise to me.).

lack of energy
asthenia
the pill eliminated all pain i felt in my hip, but it was hard on my stomach. on my 10th day of medication, i experienced vaginal bleeding. this scared me because it was two weeks after my normal period. there is something really fishy about this drug. i do not advise anyone to take it as there are many adverse side effects.

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.
