http://www.medications.com/effect/view/32776 I started taking Lipitor 12 years ( 1997 ) ago as my Cholesterol was at 315. I was always athletic but had a crappy diet. My Cholesterol dropped to 200 within a year. However, in 2001 I ruptured my left Achilles playing tennis. Thought nothing much and Sun, 27 Jul 2008 00:45:09 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/32776?item=10489 It is amazing you could take Lipitor for so long and your side effects are getting better in less of a week ! I stopped it on 2-08, after taking this poison for 8 yrs. I still have side effects. I take natural products to help it and keep my cholesterol http://www.medications.com/effect/view/32776?item=10489 Sun, 27 Jul 2008 09:22:00 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/32776?item=10494 Read this article http://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/571031 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/32776?item=10494 Tue, 12 Aug 2008 22:19:15 -0400 http://www.medications.com/effect/view/32776?item=11059 An update. I've been off Lipitor since my original post. Still notice gradual improvement in tingling/numbness in both feet. Started to go to a deep tissue massage therapist and believe this will help. I have problems with fairly severe muscle pain in http://www.medications.com/effect/view/32776?item=11059
