I am a 56 year old man who has been on zocor for a few months. A few weeks ago after going out to a party, the next day I was ok in the AM, but then became increasingly dizzy to the point of having to stay in bed. Last Saturday, I had a two hour drive and felt dizzy driving and got worse as the drive went on. I had several anxiety attacks and had to stop several times. On the way back Sunday, I was so dizzy and disoriented, I had more anxiety attacks and had to stop several times again. That night, I went to a birthday party and had several glasses of white wine, which made me feel a little better. Ever since then, I have had severe dizziness and numbness almost sending me to the emergency room. This site keeps me out. After 5 days of no zocor, and limited alcohol and caffeine intake, I am feeling much better. Also, over the last few months, I have been getting weird flaking of skin on my face. Don't take zocor. If you do, don't drink, and limit the caffeine.
