To all of you here I would suggest that you also read messages for the others statins such as for instance Lipitor, Zocor and Simvastatin as all statins have similar side effects.
I have written several messages there (Swedish). I have nothing to do with the health or pharmaceutical industry.
Just an ordinary lady in her sixties who have experienced side effects in people close to me.
That made me look for information. It started in 2003 and continues to this day because I think it`s necessary.
I hope you will be able to read some of the books that I mention in my messages to enlighten yourself.
Unfortunately the names of the webb-sites have been replaced with ***' but if you google for the names of the writers I am sure you will find them.
Good luck!

I have extreme thumb spasms, often both thumbs at the same time. i had an episode a few weeks ago of a severe pain in my hip running down my leg. I was in bed all weekend as a result and needed a cortisone shot to help relieve the pain. I forgot a name right after they tell me and I am only 50 years old. I lose my balance and sometimes almost fall and have vertigo every now and then. I wonder if all these symptoms are from lipitor. I have been on it for at least 3 years.
