Wow, wish I had read this a long time ago. I have been on Vytorin 10/10 for 2+ years. Have many of the same complications as posted by others. Numbness in the hands and arms and severe joint pain in my elbows(I am not a tennis player, or anything remotely close to that) has just started to increase over the last month. Never made the connection until now. And the sleepiness!...I just feel like I could sleep all day everyday!...Now, this is one that I haven't seen in other posts, and am curious if anyone else has noticed capsule shaped things in your stool? They are almost a yellowish color and I would say about the size of a ring finger tip from the top joint to the tip of your finger? Part of me just assumed it was the Vytorin taking the cholesterol out of my system, but now I am worrying it could be something more. Any replies are appreciated, and last night, I took my last dose of Vytorin!

Good that you stopped taking this dangerous drug. The drs and the drug co's . are doing a SCAM on the anti-cholesterol drugs . . . . it is all about big $$. In reality, your mind/body needs cholesterol to function. Don't let your dr. to con you.
