I stopped taking 20mg of Lipitor for the following reasons: arm and muscle pain, wrist pain, neck and shoulder pain, knee pain, foot pain, arm weakness when raising my arms, mental fuzziness. I
Withdrawal symptoms : headache, eye ache, increased neck pain.
My goal is to see if the dosage symptoms decrease within two weeks and maybe I will try 10mg of Lipitor and see if that amount produces the same symptoms. My doctor directed me to a Rheumatologist as recent blood work showed inflammation in the arthritis panel. I am waiting to see if being off Lipitor for two weeks might reduce my arthritis symptoms .
I had a stint put in March 2008 and I am on Plavix (75mg), Lisinopril (10mg) and Lipitor (20mg).

I'm 44 and have taken Vytorin for several months. Having a lot of the symptoms listed. Has anyone had a problem with the heart skipping beats? I took myself off the stuff yesterday and already I feel a lot better - not great yet but I'm hoping thats to come.

i was on the ring for 9 months. Trust me it was the worst thing i ever did. i had all the symptoms,headache,nausea,no sex drive,insomnia, and my hair was falling out in ridiculous amounts. i stopped taking the ring about 7 months ago and still having the effects. now that we actually are trying to get pregnant its just not working. i dint know that nuvaring causes temporary infertility after you stop using it!!! They don't even know how long it lasts. so in my opinion the ring was the worst decision i ever made..

I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT I HAVE HAD MOST OF THE ABOVE SYMPTOMS. HEADACHE,TIRED,WITHDRAWN, VERY DEPRESSED.DONT CARE ABOUT ANYTHING- ESPECIALLY THOSE THINGS I USED TO LIKE,DRY EYES AND MOUTH,DIZZINESS, I CAN SOMETIMES HEAR MY HEARTBEAT AND IT SCARES ME. I WAS ON ZESTRIL- I WAS FINE . I DIDN'T HAVE THE ABOVE SYMPTOMS TILL THE INSURANCE COMPANY MADE ME TAKE THE LISINOPRIL.THEY SAID IT WAS CHEAPER. SOOOO..LOOK WHO SUFFERS. I HAVE BEEN OFF LISINOPRIL FOR 3 DAYS NOW - I FEEL MUCH BETTER. WE NEED TO CHECK OUT WHAT THE DOCTORS PRESCRIBE BEFORE WE TAKE THESE PRESCRIPTIONS.
