yep...me too. This all started after just two doses. Stomach pain, nausea... GHP requested that I stop taking Lipitor because of the costs....I have taken lipitor for over 7 years with NO problems at all. I will ask to be put back on Lipitor or I will consult a lawyer.

After taking Crestor and Lipitor, I found that my fingernails grow in
very weak, dry and brittle . They chip at the slightest tap of the
finger (like dry chalk). I take between 5mg. to 10 mg. a day.
What can I do to allow my fingernails to grow back stronger.
