I think I would get off that stuff asap and tell your doctor to put you on something else if it is nessisary to be on a statin. I was on Crestor and it worked well to the point my joints hurt. The good news is I only had 1 side effect with it as I am (or had) multiple problems with Vytorin (see blog). I stopped a couple days ago and already I feel like a new man. 10/80 is a pretty steep dose. I was only on 10/20 and I felt like crap. I can only imagine what you are going through.
I'm not taking it this weekend at all...then I have to wait of course until Monday to get in the office...I was on zetia and zocor and didn't have this...it may be that i am having anxiety attacks caused by the vytorin and not the myopathy, etc. since it comes and goes at odd times and lasts about an hour and peaks then subsides. thanx
what happened with a diagnosis chris
