Lipitor and mum

My Mum took liptor for 2 weeks it almost killed her. Her muscles degenerated and her liver almost gave up. 2 years afterwards she is still suffering.

She has found relief by taking each day a teaspoon of a good quality powdered form of MSM, also powdered Noni.

She has also done a cleanse using 3 teaspoons of powder activated charcoal for 5 days. She also did a colon cleanse by taking one tablespoon for seven days of calcium bentonite clay and also pascalite bentonite clay.

She also cleanse her liver by drinking the juice of one organic lemon each morning one hour before food for seven days.

She drinks Naked\Odwalla carrot juice to help cleanse the blood and Naked\Odwalla Green Machine\Green Superfood, helps with pain and gives energy.

She also uses white willow and ashgawandha for pain and swelling.

Phew! What a relief to find this board. Started on Lipitor a couple of months ago to reduce cholesterol, I asked the doc if he knew of any side effects before I took it and he said No one he knew on it had complained about any and he had a lot of patients on it. Well Doc, I must be your first because from feeling great in a matter of weeks I have calf muscle pain, flu like symptoms and a headache now for two weeks with pain like a migraine at times. My toes are always cold and tingly and I feel unwell all the time and very tired. As my mum used to say, if the medication your taking makes you feel worse, then stop taking it because the body is trying to tell you something. I would rather die early from high cholesterol than put up with this so will be stopping forthwith and maybe someone had better let the makers of this drug know what it is doing to people. I live in Australia by the way.
