My GP told me to stop taking them immediately if I get any stomach or muscle pains and he will give me a different type.
Graham - click on QUOTE & the post you are replying to appears.
Mine is muscle pain. It developed after a few months, so I did not associate it with statins. Getting out of bed was intensely painful. Then I read a letter in the Balance magazine. I stopped taking them & the pain went within a week. But the same muscle is sensitive to anything that causes problems.
I wasn't warned of possible side effects, except the enclosed leaflet.
My chol level is around 5.0.
