I stopped Lipitor in feb. and still have the side effects. From people that had experienced from this dangerous drugs, they said it takes 6-12 months to get rid of it in your system. Unfortunately, some people never get 100% better.
I did the FDA report several months ago. I got a letter and never heard anything else. I am sure I won't.
If I can help you, just e-mail me.
Good luck, I've never had so much pent up hatred in my life all for preventitive medicine. Some cancer patients come out of chemotherapy better than some of us come out of statins. Good luck again 6 months L8R I am improving but all the costs have been devastaing. CYa
