My husband had a TIA in July of 2004 and had some short term memory loss and has polycythemia so in fall of 2004 doctor put him on 10 mil of lipitor , I immediately noticed a difference in him he couldn't remembeer things like he did before had skin problems hurt all over but dr. could not believe it was lipitor so in March of 2006 put him on 20 mil. of lipitor to lower his cholesterol more, he started getting hateful, mean and hard to live with. Nov. 15 we got a flu shot and 2 days later he lost it completly didn't know where he was what he was doing and didn't remember me. It came and went for a week and on 24th. put him in hospital. Doctors did all kinds of tests and could not find what was causing his problems so told me to put him in nursing home in the lock down ward, I couldn't do it so brought him home with ativan if I needed it so 2 times in 5 days I had to give it to him and was odd as his problems always came on at night after taking his lipitor. so on the 5th day looked on the computer and immediately knew what his problem was so stopped it right then. He is slowly getting better has good days and bad days. I am hoping it will improve some. The sad thing is the doctors wont agree with me that lipitor has caused all his problems. I wish there was a way to broadcast it so other people could see what can happen and if I could just prevent one person from having to go through wat we have been and still are , I think that would be wonderful Thank you
