I thought I was going crazy. I am 49 year old female. I just finsihed Chemo and radition in April, 2004. I thought my aches and pains were the result of this treatment. My oncology doctor states it was not related. I started taking Libitor 10 mg in October2003. Since that time I have been feeing tired ( hard to do house work without stopping to rest) Also, especially in the morning, I dread getting out of bed because the bottom of my feet appeares to be swollen and my legs and body aches. I have a double whammy regarding memory loss ( from chemo and lipitor combined) I will be talking with my doctor on Monday. This is serious. thanks for the web site. This pain goes on daily . When I sit for long periods of times, b ody stiffiens up. There's got to be a better way.

if you are still having side effects to Lipitor, coq-10 can help. Available at super markets, health food stores etc... but cheapest on-line. I was told 300mg a day but had to go up to 900 mg a day and the symptoms started to lesson in 3 days and were GONE within a week! You have to keep taking it or they will come back as your body repairs itself, I found out the hard way, But I was on crutches unable to walk, I also took Acetyl L-Carnitine 500mg 3X a day. If you have any questions I posted 9-4-7 and feel free to contact me, God Bless
