Welchol and headache

I have been on Welchol to help lower my cholesterol along with the lipitor and I have such muscle aches and pain especially in my feet, knees, arms are sore along with my right shoulder, headache everyday and very tired. Not sure if I am going to fill my prescription today..I ache all over.

Wow, third day and no headache so I guess it was the weather. I was also not tired so. I feel great with no side effects. I just hope this works. Blood test at the end of Jan. will tell all.

This is my second day taking Welchol and so far I have been ok. I did have a headache yesterday but I am not sure if it was the weather or the medication. I didn't read that the medication makes you tired but I do get sleepy from it. I am hoping that my body needs to just adjust to this new medication.

Just started taking it 2 days ago, already, headache, watery eyes, acid reflux. Couldn't take statins either, Lipitor=terrible foot pain, Zocar= major stomach upset, High Dose Niacin=terrible itching, Crestor=immediate memory lose and now this. Think I need to tell the Dr.'s to leave me alone and let the LDL's role. From reading these post I think there is a group of us that are not supposed to take this crap....

I wished I come across this site earlier. I had all the symptoms described. Currently had severe knee pain, right shoulder pain, tired, watery eyes, nauseating back headache, dizziness...
Had WELCOL for about 6 months.
Will seriously try to seek alternate method. I am 47yrs old

I have been on Welchol since April & have been experiencing several unexplained problems. I have been having "sweats" which I just chalked up to being menopause symptoms.........but now not so sure. I can't sleep & suffer from muscle pain as well as muscle spasms in my face. Is anyone else having any of these issues!

I STARTED TAKING WELCHOL3/12/03 I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO MISERABLE,THE WORST HEADACHE I EVER HAD,STOMACH AND LEG CRAMPS,INSOMNIA,AND WORST OF ALL MY DR.ASSURED ME THERE WERE NO SIDE EFFECTS,AFTER A WEEK I TOLD HIM NO MORE,I STILL FEEL TERRIBLE ,WHEN WILL ALL THIS STOP.
