Could Lipitor or Arthritis be stopping my B12 from working
Hi does anyone know if
Lipitor
for high cholesterol affect their B12 injection? My GP took me off it for 2 weeks and also did a blood test for arthritis in the meantime. I have gone from managing on B12 injection 6 weekly to 2weekly in 9 months .

New onset AFIB with stroke
I'm on
lipitor
, lopressor and eliquis for the foreseeable future. If I don't have any AFIB episodes or if I do and my heart doesn't race, I'll come off the beta blocker. Also, once I get my cholesterol below 100 I'll come off that also. I wasn't very high so I'll keep it down with diet.

Inflammation.
Cardiologists learned that they could prevent plaque accumulation by changing diet or habits or by using cholesterol-lowering drugs like
Lipitor
. Beyond prevention, the doctors could forcibly widen the arterial blockade or inject clot-busting drugs.

Peripheral neuropathy and burning feet
After changing from HCTZ (diuretic), and cutting
Lipitor
in half, my feet no longer burn. I was, and am still taking ropinerole and gabapentin for restless legs and neuropathy. Also taking Alpha Lipoic Acid, and think that my cognitive fog has eased somewhat. (I'm on Tecfidera for MS.)

Muscle pain in arms/shoulders with Lipitor
Been taking
Lipitor
for approx. 15 years low dose 10mg 3 days a week. Doctor says the muscle/joint pain is because of how long I have been on it. Been off for almost a month and still have the pains, one arm then the other then shoulders or hips.

New here. My Story and Why I Stopped Worrying Quite So Much. Also, One Question.
Lipitor
too. I actually feel a lot better and I think the worst is behind me. However... Question: It's been weeks since the TEE. My esophagus still hurts when I eat or drink. I feel full after eating small amounts but I'm not losing weight. In fact, I feel a bit bloated. Anyone else have that?

lipitor

High cholesterol
The doctor says I have a high coronary risk and overweight and should weigh 90kg for my height at 6'3inches and has prescribed
Lipitor
80mg for three months. The whole idea of living healthy is to avoid such issues and here I'm dealing with this. I'll be grateful for any suggestions, thanks.

What are our rights regarding prescribed medication, UK?
There was a period when I was ok taking the statin
Lipitor
, but got gastric sides with the generic Atorvastatin - supposedly same drug.
Lipitor
is 10 times the cost of Avn to NHS.. I haven't found any links to official guidance. Has anyone? It would be really helpful if BLF could inform us?

Pravastatin Effective Dosage
I'm not having any side effects at the moment, but I also don't fully trust statins (I had an instantly bad experience with
Lipitor
) and would like to minimize my exposure to them. Would 20mg of Pravastatin still be an effective dose? I know it's a weaker statin than some of the newer ones.

Heart Event, 1996
He put into an intensive heart rehab program, improved my eating life-styles, Rx.325mg aspirin in morning, with ACE inhibitor and
Lipitor
in evenings. I have been in this life style change since Sept.1996. I still work out in gym 2-3 evenings a week and am on the same Rx program.
