High triglicerides symptoms and conditions

I am a 37 year old man who weighed approximately 188lbs when I prescribed 20mg of Lipitor and fish oil to combat my high triglycerides(437) and my high total cholesterol(212) in August of 2009. I have a high stress job and was experiencing occasional chest pain and heart palpitations. In addition, I have psoriasis and psoriasis arthritis and take Enbrel injections weekly. Prior to taking Lipitor, I had normal liver function tests.

At the same time that I began the fish oil and Lipitor, I began to change my eating habits and began a regular exercise routine. I began to feel better and lose weight. I was enthused about my progress. I took my Lipitor at night, however, I found it difficult to get up in the mornings and I was a little more tired than normal.

Roughly 3 months after beginning Lipitor, I developed a condition of EXTREME thirst. Blood tests from my doctor revealed elevated Liver Levels. His first inclination was that it was Lipitor so I stopped taking it ASAP. A subsequent test a week later indicated little improvement in my liver tests. My doctor suggested we give it two more weeks to test it. I just got my tests back and they actually increased!(ALT 197, AST 90, ALP 571).

My cardiologist does not have anything to suggest other than the possibility of a fatty liver, gall stones, or liver disease. His recommendation was that I get an ultrasound next week of my liver and meet with a GI doctor.

My excessive thirst and fatigue continues. I am not jaundiced but I do frequently experience dark urine. I weigh myself every morning and my weight is now down to 174. I seem to be losing very gradual weight now though my eating habits have returned to my old routine. This worries me. I am now worried that this drug triggered something terrible in my system. Does anyone have any advice?

Heart attack 15 years ago, bypass 5 years ago. Have been taking 40 to 80 mg lipitor per day for about a year after being switched from zocor due to high triglicerides (400+), high LDL & diabetes. Also taking zetia & niacin since March. Results, over last 5 months fatigue and short term memory impairment have become debilitating, affecting home & work. For awhile I thought it was all in my mind.
Stopped lipitor about a week ago and have noticed less fatigue & way better short term memory.
Lesson: Pay attention to what your body is telling you.

I have been on Celexa for about 2 months coming off Zerazone. First the doctor started me on 20 mg's which made me shakey as the day wore on. I take this with 7.5Mg's of Tranxene cut in half twice a day for anxiety. Then the doctor increased it to 40 Mg's once a day with breakfast. But then I have been experiencing severere diareah and loose bowells. My stomache Dr. thinks its from either of three items, the Celexa, olive oil pills or the Prevacid for peptic ulcers. So he stopped the olive oil pills for high triglicerides, and now has stopped the prevacid and told me if the bowell problems don't stop then I would have to stay off the Celexa for a week or take a colonoscopy again which I had 18 months ago. The problem is I might get severe withdrawall symptoms and anxiety attacks if I go off the celexa. I might try cutting back to 20 mg's for a week and see if this helps. I recently had an upper endoscopy for the ulcers and they found 3-non cancerous leissions. Would appreciaty any advice I can get as I have a long history of anxiety attacks.
