I also had a similar experience with Lipitor, then Crestor just made me feel overall ill with muscle weekness, then Vytorin gave me a horrible sinus infection which turned in severe bronchitis. I have allerted Lipitor ( Pfizer) and the Vytorin company. These side effects have really been irritating and costly. There is a study being done on the side effects. I will try to find the link.

if you are still having side effects to Lipitor, coq-10 can help. Available at super markets, health food stores etc... but cheapest on-line. I was told 300mg a day but had to go up to 900 mg a day and the symptoms started to lesson in 3 days and were GONE within a week! You have to keep taking it or they will come back as your body repairs itself, I found out the hard way, But I was on crutches unable to walk, I also took Acetyl L-Carnitine 500mg 3X a day. If you have any questions I posted 9-4-7 and feel free to contact me, God Bless
