wow. It is great and depressing to read these. Here is my saga. Started Lipitor 10 mg in late 2002. Told my internist that I had muscle weakness in early 2003. She said it couldn't be the lipitor because it would have shown up sooner. So, I stayed on it until this fall the pain got so bad that I had an MRI that showed arthritis. I could barely walk in the mornings and nothing seemed to help. Was being treated for arthristis on celebrex and pain killers when a friend came to visit for New York and told me about her pain issues with Zocor. I took my last lipitor on Christmas Eve and already feel better. The pain in the left leg is still there and the knee problems. Lots of you are asking when the pain goes away. Does anyone know.
