I have been on lipitor for about 2 yrs. Six months ago I developed tendenitis in my right elbow also bicipitel tendenitis in my right shoulder for no reason , I am not a tennis player or a golfer....... I knit. funny but not really. I can hardly lift a dish cloth . Now for the last 2 months I have developed calf pain. Last night woke in the middle of the night with upper thigh pain, thought I should check out more indepth side effects on the internet and am shocked to find all of these entries, but I also feel thankful because as of today I am stopping my lipitor and will go for natural remedies.

I have been on Toprol-XL 25mg for 3 months. Shortly after I started this medication I developed hip/upper thigh pain which feels better when I walk. It seems the muscles are very sore in my legs. Never had this prior to taking this medication. It just gives you a sick feeling. I am going to start weaning myself off of this med by cutting it down to 1/2 a tab. I will say one thing it has regulated the PAC's but perhaps the flutter in my chest that will not hurt me, is better than the side effects of this drug. Of course the doctors deny that this drug has these side effects.
