My husband was prescribed 40mg of this drug 2 years back,for his ...

All sounds like symptoms of statin poisoning. Go to lipitor side effects another statin. I was on your one and very very nearly died. Also go to spacedoc dot com you will really learn. Check all of bobby and drmike profile and answers on this site (lipitor) these 2 are informed and a huge help to a lot of us. You would probably really benifit from coq10 but it must be the UBIQUINOL form (3-5 times more effective than other formulations) 2 - 3 x 100 mgs per day plus magnessium citrate powder 400 mgs per day these were both recommended to me and helped considerably. Be patient in the end it comes right for most people. Best for your health.

I stopped the Hydrocholothyazide and I had this tingling sensation on the back of my head -- what is this about; what is wrong I asked God to take it out from me and I gained 5 lbs; God I am sorry for letting it this far; I never took Rx before and when I started this-- I had spells like blocked out -had to hold on to something and this happened at work and every thing spin aroung and noticed that my pallete attached to my mouth; it affected my breath and lost some of my senses; even when I closed my eyes the room spins around -- I can't poop but when I do it stinks bad and pass gas constantly even in public; this is terrible and I am not an old bag; it sad that a prettty woman can pass gas in any place and can't hold it.. i hate this Rx

I totally agree with you... same here my hubby was ex Mil/retired and yes they give him this Rx and he gained weight -- he used to be all active and happy; now he "live" inside of himself and annoyed by everything;
He used to dive and we used to sail (boat) and now he is totally opposite and live in paranoia; His life was taken by all these drugs and he can not sleep and loss his will to work; He have a College degrees and 22 yrs in the service and used to be such an active person.... He is taking pills for stomach, joints, back, prostate, depression and others... we are losing the battle but the pharmaceutical and "other" are getting rich out of all of us-- we are life fish in the hook-- they say we need to take it -- then we believe them-- it suppose to be the other way around; to tell them NO; they wont even take those RX that the prescribed us....

it is sad
