My sun has suffered from three years of age with stomach pain and discomfort uppon eating he is now 12 years old. We have seen many doctors all of whom are very vague. His blood work consistantly comes back with low amylase and lipase. Yet they dont see any need for further investigation. I have been told he has a sensitive stomach. As a mother I see more. I live with him and see him every day. He eats very little, (i think it still hurts) he says he's not in pain anymore. At nine he was still thr...

I am 47 and have been on Lipitor now for about 7 months. For the last week or so, I have been experiencing upper shoulder, neck, and elbow pain. I passed it off as possibly the way that I sit at my computer. 1 week ago I went to the doctor to have the normal liver blood tests and she (the PA) asked if I had been experiencing any pain in my legs. At the time I didn't, and I didn't think anything of asking about my upper shoulder and neck problems, so I said "No, I feel fine".
-- By mrssmith | Reply | Send Private MailNow today, I have been experiencing a constant twitch (for the lack of a better term) in my left foot. It's not like a normal twitch, in fact when my husband asked me to describe the sensation, I said that it felt like my nerve endings were twitching. I have also had a lot of dull headaches lately (which is very uncommon for me). I decided to search for Lipitor side effects and found this site. The thing that worries me more than anything is that my mom (which is 80 years old) has been on Lipitor now for approximately 4 years. She complained of her knees hurting but, chalked it up to her age. She contacted the doctor and he said that it wouldn't cause the kind of pain she was describing. It was most likely due to her age. I am so thankful I found this site and that everyone has taken the time to share their story. I am hoping that there is a healthier alternative. I read somewhere (maybe this site) to start taking CoQ10 and Vitamin C to reduce your cholesterol naturally. Hope this helps. Also, your natural CoQ10 is reduced considerably when taking statins. Thank you to everyone that has posted here. If I hear anything new I will let you know. God Bless and best wishes to everyone.
