Welchol and stomach

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....

Severe itching and burning in chest and breast. Intense burning in rib cage and stomach. Breast pain, had mammo last year,going back Friday to check on that again..Pain in left shoulder and burning in arms to. Some minor pain in low back, legs & toes. Tons of gas & flatulence and bloating. Headaches and nausea, some dizziness & sensitivity to light.

I've been taking Welchol for three weeks and have developed gastritis which I think is the result of taking this med. One of the side effects is heartburn which I do not have but I do have burning sensation in my stomach. Please respond if you have experienced this side effect. I hurt! Thanks! M.A.

I've been taking welchol for a little over a month... I notice that my stomach got bigger (is this what you call bloating) in a month's times... my whole body i still small. Also I always have gas...usually this happens when I drink regular milk (lactose intolerance), but I've switch to soy milk and gas is still there.. I used soy milk prior to taking welchol.

Also, I cannot bend my middle finger on my right hand and it is very tender.. This only happened recently..
