I’m not on this medication but I am on Atorvastatin. My Cardiologist told me to take a statin holiday for a few weeks which I did and my shoulder/bicep pain was still the same. Ultra sound showed inflammation and small burser. So mine wasn’t caused by statins. Perhaps ask your doctor to refer you for an ultrasound scan. Hope it sorts out for you.
