Lipitor and weight watchers

I started taking Liptor, maybe 2-3 months ago. I too have experienced the muscle problem in my knee and elbow. I also have the tired feeling. What I am wondering about is, I have been having a aching feeling in stomach. Has anyone else had this type of a symptom' while they were taking Liptor. I just went to see my doctor the other day; and he took me off of Liptor. I have decided, just to go to Weight Watchers; and reduce my cholesterol natrually. You figure medicnes are chemicals. For every chemical there is a reaction. If I had know the side effects of this drug, I never would have taken it. I glad to have this web sight. I feels good to be able to ask these questions. MMcG

I appear to have a weight gain I am now 12st 1 or 2 have never been more than 11st 12 when I went to Weight Watchers.I have been in the 10st to 11st bracket for 3 yrs now and I dont drink very much now and try to eat sensibly. I am ready for my blood count for Cholestrol. It will be interesting when I get the results. I am now 70 yrs. I would be pleased to have your comments.
