Suggest Remedy For Pain In Leg Muscles Post Lipitor Withdrawal
I have been on Lipitor since the 1980s. I have had muscle pain off and on was once treated for lupus. My doctor I have now is excellent. I just saw him last Tues. My leg muscles are so bad aching and cramping I can no longer walk. I am an active 73. I have been just trying to tough it out and keep mowing and gardening. But it s too bad now. He took me off Lipitor first . It s been 4 days I m still not able to get around. Do you think it may take weeks or months before I notice any improvement sincebi took it so long?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it could be two queries are there first is cholesterol and second is pain, for both you need to practice some exercise, try to stay away from stress, medicine has got very little role but of course you could come out of this condition without this, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
