I am glad to hear that CBS is looking into Lipitor. My feeling is that the posts that you read on this board are just the tip of the iceberg. For every one post here there are probably, at least, 10,000 others with similar symptoms. At some point there has to be a class action suit against these drug companies
I posted #5174 back in April. At that time my lower back was killing me. After stopping Lipitor the worst of the back pain went away. Unfortunately, there still is a constant low-level of pain. I am afraid that the Lipitor has done permanent damage. Also, the tininitus is still in my left ear.
Aside from the constant low back pain and the tininitus the muscle aches, toe cramps, and joint pain have gone away.
