Got Muscle Pain From Lipitor? You're Not Alone.

Muscle pain from Lipitor, Crestor, and Vytorin is far more common than the drug companies would have us believe. Statin manufacturers tell us in their clever commercials that this side effect is minor or rare.

But if you're one of those who are experiencing soreness and muscle aches, it's far from minor. And as you'll see, it's certainly not rare. Here are just a few first hand accounts:

Steve had muscle pains with a statin drug, and now he wants to know, "Does the muscle pain ever go away? I have been off for about 1 week and it is a little better but still hurts."

Jo says she took statins for only one week. Her
reaction: "Enough! Apart from the skin rash, the insomnia and twitching in bed, I had brand new muscle pains. It took about 5 or 6 weeks for those pains to fade. And about the same time for the rash to fade, too. Sleep normalized within a few days. Statins? Pure poison."

"I had muscle pain while taking statins," writes
Verde. "After I stopped, the pain SLOWLY went away. Also my liver enzymes got elevated from taking them."

Omie notes that most people don't realize that any muscle pain associated with statins is your body's way of saying, "Toxic!" He adds, "I let my doc talk me into statins a few years ago, tried 3 different ones and got slight muscle pains with each one."

"Wow! So many people with side effects!" is Amy's reaction to the postings in this thread. She says her father took a statin drug for quite a while until his legs started buckling out from under him while standing. "Well guess you all know the culprit! We now know why it has been so hard for him to climb stairs."

Natasha, Larry and Cher also say they've experienced muscle pains while taking statins. Jack's wife developed soreness in her muscles, along with liver problems. Dianne had pain in her joints, but most of the pain is gone, now that she stopped taking a statin drug.

So given all these testimonials, if you want to lower
cholesterol, where do you turn? Debbie offers this suggestion: "Look for a natural product called policosanol."

I'm Gene Millen the host of this website. When I first heard about this powerful cholesterol lowering supplement I was skeptical because it seemed too good to be true. However, after studying the research I not only became convinced I got excited. This is one of the best natural products that I have ever reviewed. Policosanol has my personal recommendation...and nothing is too good for my heart!

"After 60 days on policosanol I had my cholesterol checked and my total cholesterol dropped from 255 to 226 but the best news is that the HDLs went up up 43% and LDLs dropped 14% for an improvement in the important Cholesterol to HDL ratio of a whopping 38%. Triglycerides also dropped 100 points, from 167 to 67, a 60% improvement."

Dr. Wayne Graveline, former astronaut, who is known as the Space Doc says this about muscle pain from Lipitor and other statin drugs:

"When I started my research on Lipitor®, Mevacor® and Zocor®, the so-called stronger statins, reported side effects were primarily "a few aches and pains and occasional liver intolerance," arguably an acceptable price for society to pay for such a beneficial class of drugs.

"No longer does this come even close to the truth. Of great concern today are the growing numbers of adverse drug reports associated with the use these drugs, reflecting dysfunction of many different body systems.

As reported in my books in greater detail, first I learned about the reality of severe CoQ10 depletion from statin drug use, including Zocor, and realized that this one important constituent of the mevalonate pathway, by its deficiency, contributed to a majority of the side effects being reported."

Does Your CoQ10 Really Work?

Dr. Sears says, "If You’re Taking the Wrong Kind of CoQ10 You May Be Wasting Your Money!"

"The many health benefits of taking Coenzyme Q10 are already well established… Yet many patients I talk to in my practice tell me they don’t feel any different after they start taking CoQ10.

"When they show me the bottle, I immediately know why.

"As it happens, most of the CoQ10 they are taking never makes it to their cells where it can do the most good.

"In fact, most people over 50 have a hard time converting CoQ10 into its usable form. The lion’s share of the valuable CoQ10 enzyme disappears – making it impossible to give your cells the protection and nourishment they need.

"Fortunately, I’ve found a simple way to solve this problem forever …
