I am a energetic 46 y/o female. Doctor placed me on a very low dose of Zocor after my yearly physical. After only eight days I had EXTREME left side pain. Literally spent four days bedridden. Thought I might have pulled a muscle...but then kept getting worse. I was constantly bent over in pain. Thank goodness for this website!!! Zocor was the only medication I was taking and just by luck I searched for any side effects. I was amazed to say the least. Stopped taking 5 days ago and now I'm back to my old self. PAIN GONE!!!! My 83 y/o mother in law was also on Zocor and was complaining of "back pain". Her doctor scheduled her for an MRI after running many tests to no avail. I asked her to stop the Zocor after my findings on this website. I am very happen to report she is pain-free as well after only 4 days!!!! Thank you all so very much!
