I have been taking Lipitor for nearly 3 years, and during this time, for virtually the whole time I have suffered with sever burning pains in my toes of my right foot, stinging pains also which cannot be attributed to anything else. It has got so severe that at times I cannot walk, and could not bear to put my foot on the ground. It was only recently that I linked these pains to taking Lipitor, and I have since stopped the drug. Miraculously my "acute " pains have gone within a few days, although I am left with very great soreness in the skin of my right foot, which feels like it is nerve generated. I have been to the doctor on numerous occasions about these symptons, and although I have been a "Heart" patient for 3 years and seen 3 GP's during this time, not one has ever linked my pain to the drug. Knowing what I know now, this drug should be withdrawn and alternative remedies used to lower cholesterol before anymore people suffer. My experience has been one of near disablement, and a sever reduction in the quality of my life for what? I only hope that my body will now heal and I can make a full recovery.
