After taking Pravachol for almost a year I started having pain in my legs and arms mostly but really all over. My family Dr. took me off the Pravacho; and gemfibrsol. Instead of getting better it just kept getting worse. Finally when I could not function any longer because of the severe neck pain I went to the hospital, The Drs. there diagnosed "Rhabdomyolsis". I was put in Intensive care and the next day I had kidney dialysis.Following that my calcium, magniesium and potasium levels dropped. They are improving and I haven't had to have any more dialysis at this time. Still in a lot of pain from the muscle damage.
