I took Zocor for 9 months after I had a heart attack. After abou...

Classic case of Zocor poisoning.

If I were in your shoes, I would get a muscle biopsy in order to document the damage, and then contact an attorney who handles this type of case.

There haven't been too many attorneys that handle statin litigation. I just located one in NYC. His name is Mark Krum and he has filed lipitor lawsuits for clients across the USA. I don't know if he handles zocor cases or not. I am not affiliated with this guy in anyway, nor do I know what his track record is. I just found him on the net and thought you might be interested. Wishing you the best and that justice will be served.

I have been looking for someone to talk to about this and see what I should do but there has been no one taking Zocor cases that I have found. Thanks for the name I will see what I can find out. Thanks this is so discouraging not to be able to get answers from the medical folks I have seen for help. It feels like no one cares my legs don't work any more. I have my first grand child he is 7 months old and I cannot walk and carry him. I can't work in my flowers or clean my house. I can actually do no physical activities at all unless it is sitting down. It is a good thing I work in HR and just sit at a desk most of day or I wouldn't be able to continue to work any more and disability is so hard to get. thanks!

We've just come across statins and orthopedics in the UK, reported in the orthopedics journal. 3 case studies, patients presenting joint pain on ceasing the statin medication the pain reduced or was eliminated. Suggest you go to spacedoc dot net he makes some rommendations for relief.

Are you boosting up on your supplements especially COQ10? Also make sure you get the right sort of coq10 the hydrosluble ubiqunol from Kaneka has been shown through independent tests to be 300% more bioavailable than other brands of coq10. 300 mgs a day plus plus heaps of quality fish oil gave me a good 20% improvement within a month. It's not the total fix but as you know any little bit helps. It's a miserable cruel road.Good luck

Just want to share with you my experience. I had the same symptoms as yours when I took the Zocor for a month. So I searched the Web and found a natural way to lower the LDL and the total cholesterol, at the same time raise the HDL. It's the combination of Niacin (which is vitamin B3) and Milk Thistle (which is a herb that is really effective in detoxify the liver). The Milk Thistle is really helpful for people who take a lot of drugs or who are under chemotherapy, because it helps the liver getting rid of the toxins that accumulated in it. Anyway, after stopping the Zocor, my muscle spasm didn't go away, my total cholesterol was 275, HDL was 33. After taking the Niacin (500mg a day) and Milk Thistle for 1 week, the muscle spasm went away. After 1 month, my cholesterol dropped to 198, HDL raises to 45. I'm so thankful that I'm pain free, and I don't have to take any prescription drug.

Try COQH + folic acid+ B6+B12 + carnitine + D-ribose and crenatine.Don't forget Vitamin A and E.
This is what most of us (statin victims) are taking and our conditions improved.
