My wife is experiencing severe muscle pain in the back and rib area after taking this drug. Has anyone gotten better after they stopped taking the medication or is everyone still suffering?

Have been taking Zocor for about 5 years now, leg and knee pain makes in almost impossible for me to walk. Has this medicine caused permanent damage to my muscles and joints? a question I would like to have answered. I am 71 years old and up to now could walk endlessly without pain or distress. A couple of years ago switched to generic Zocor which is SIMVASTATIN. Noticed no difference, but still have difficulty walking very far and am from side to side unstable, when I walk, because of pain in one leg or the other. Now what is the answer, has this medicine caused permanent injury, it has caused me to be more comfortable sitting and have things to do. Will the pain go away and will I regain my strength back in my legs? Wonder what is the answer.
Tom.

Any further info re cysteine / selenium depletion ? Also sources if possible.
Also, any info re muscle tension, fragility ?
I stopped Lisinopril earlier because of muscles tearing.
On taking it again, old muscle tears re-opened, forearm and back musles very tight.
Thank you.

My side effects are the same as Guest #26472. The pain is so bad in my legs and ankle musles sometimes I can hardly get up from a chair or walk across a room, I find myself walking bent over to relieve the pain I have in my shoulder and upper arm musles, my hands feel like pins and needles and my ankles and lower legs swell. In January I had a triple bypass and have been taking 80mg Zocor ever since. I have talked with my Dr. about this and he has never said to stop taking Zocor or recommended any other medication, he has only adjusted other medications I am on.

I just started Advair 250/50 a few days ago - the dose is 2x per day. My asthma is better, but I've noticed tingling and numbness in my arms and lower legs. I was on Flovent previously and this never happened before. I'm going to try dropping to 1x per day on the Advair to see if this helps. Has anyone else experienced this? TA

My son who will be 11 in 4 days has been on Advair 250 for his asthma since he was 6. He is always complaining that he doesn't feel well but since he has so many different symptoms that he is usuallly ignored. Everything from sore stomachs, sore arms, legs, back and headaches all the time. Also he has a few sores over his body and has had a few of them removed to see what they were but everything came back negative. The main thing we notice about him is his anger and how upset he gets over little things. My son is also on ventolin several times a week and singulair everyday.

I was on Fosamax for over 7 years and in October of 2006 I broke my left femur. in March of 2007 I broke my right femur. I now believe that the fosamax is what caused the brakes. Both times my leg just broke each time I just slipped and when I tried to catch myself my let torked a little and the leg broke. I had been having lots of pain in both legs and had been experiencing lots of weakness in the muscle of both legs I was also having pain in both knees and was having trouble walking. I have also had lots of neck and back pain. Have had MRI and could never find any thing wrong. I quit taking fosamax last June and am better but still have lots of weakness in the muscles on my legs. I have no idea how long it take for fosamax to get out of your system Will I ever be the same. I am 65 years old and I know some is just age but I know many women much older that I am that have much less problems that I have.
