Started taking lisinopril in mid Feb 06. Three weeks in and I've been experiencing unusual joint and muscle pain. I called my doctor, mentioning my symptoms and he seemed surprised, saying that the cough was the only side effect he was aware of. I have joint pain in my fingers, wrists, ankles, knees, elbows, shoulders, and muscle pain in the forearms, biceps and thighs. I read the email from the guy who felt "as if I am 75 years old", and I can empathize. I feel as though I'd just returned to the gym after a years absence and overdid it! Trouble is, it 's there every day and seems to be getting worse.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
