I have been taking Toprol for about a year for heart palputations. Over the last few months, I began to experience a tired feeling. In the last four months, it has gotten worse and now I can't do my husehold chores. I have a trembling feeling in my arms, legs, and upper body. I also experenced muscle aches. That has ceased since I have been off the Lipitor. I have had numerous blood work done and all has come back in the normal range. I have seen a Neorologist and the tests he gave me were also normal. My guess is, it is both the Lipitor and Toprol causing my problem. I am 68 years of age, always been on the go and a fun loving person. I would like to be that person again. Ruth
