I started lipitor 10mg about 3 years ago, then went to 20 mg. I began having knee pain, hip pain and low back pain. Doctors said it was arthritis, put me on celebrex, but nothing worked. I was put on 40 mg lipitor about 6 mths ago, then began to have dizzy spells, low back pain so bad I cannot walk unless I am on walker or pushing shopping cart in store. No one believes I am in the pain I have. I am now having so much pain I can hardly get out of bed and taking a shower is the hardest part of my day. I also had a heart attack about 3 months ago. HELP I knew nothing of the side effects of lipitor until today when I accidently happened upon this web site. I plan to quit taking lipitor today. Even if it ends my life I will be out of pain
