Close range symptoms and conditions

Well i went to the family memorial weekend get together,Everyone asked me how my son was doing,great i said since he is off of the singulair and we realized what had been happening to him.I was armed with jersey mommas blog,and passed it around.My cousins new girlfriend,who has 3 boys ,said my youngest has taken singulair for years he tolerates it well,has been a great drug for him,well great i said but just be informed,as the day went on,her youngest got in a game and through th ball as hard as he could at close range into the face of a younger child,Johnny johnny say sorry she said ,and looked at me and said Jihnny has ADD you know,well i said was he diagnosed before or after Singulair,she thought a moment,and said after.A seed was planted maybe shell start to put the clues of this drug together.

I originally went on 10mg of lipitor a day in January,2007, experienced leg pain,muscle ache and weakness,so after 3 weeks went off the drug on my own.In June 2007 after talking to different Dr's I went back on Lipitor,10mg, figuring that I had not really given the drug a chance as sometimes side effects do subside after a while.I saw my Dr on July 3rd & my cholesterol had gone down to 170 in about 3 weeks.I told him about my symptoms, which were the same as before & he told me to let him know if they got worse.By August 30th 2007 I just could not tolerate the pain and achiness all over my body,I was not sleeping well as every time I turned in my bed I woke up from the pain ( We even got a new mattress fguring maybe that was contributing to the joint pain) My joints became swollen & red,I could not lift up my arms,they were so sore and weak,my neck was so stiff that it was hard to drive and have to turn my head,I had a constant headache and what seemed to me like a"fuzzy brain"I am 63 years old and have never experienced anything like this,I am an active woman with a great deal of energy and people who know me could not believe what was happening, instead of scooting ahead of everyone I was barely keeping up.I found myself not wanting to eat as my stomach was constantly bloated & in pain & I was gaining weight too.
I went off Lipitor on September 1st and the withdrawal sypmtoms have been horrendous, I went to see my Dr yesterday & he put me on an anti inflamatory drug ,I have taken 2 dosages & am already feeling an improvement.This web site really helped as I felt I was not alone suffering from the side effects of Lipitor.Many people I have talked to have experienced the same symptoms but were attributing them to aging.
