I've just been searching the internet because I was suspicious of Diovan that I have been using for about 2 yrs. Incredible! People are indicating the same problems that I have been experiencing for a few months now, and only getting worse. Severe joint pain, my arms and legs are very, very tender. I have problems sleeping at night, especially due to the pain in my legs. Just lying my legs on my mattress hurt my legs. I'm only 56 and I feel like I am 100!!! And the pain in my groin area when I walk is almost unbearable. I am calling my physician today to tell her what I have found and that I most get off Diovan. Lets see how I feel after a few days off Diovan. Some people experience much less pain just after 3 days! I hope this is true!!!! It is very difficult to live with such pain day in and day out.

I have been experiencing the same side effects. Severe joint and muscle pain, sleeplessness. I thought I was losing my mind. I have been taking the Diovan for two years and the pain has been steadily increasing. My Doctor diagnoised me with fibromayalgia, however after reading this I am beginning to wonder if it is the Diovan. Are you still experiencing the symptoms since you have stopped taking it?
