Has anyone had problems taking Lipitor? I take that & Lyrica for my Fibro along with a million other drugs. I've only been on the Lipitor for less than a month but now I don't think my Lyrica is working. Think one is canceling the other out. Anyone have a thought? Thanks & Hugs.

" Lipitor is Known to cause Muscle Pain/Weakness...I Suggest that you Call your Pharmacist to discuss all ur meds...then make an appointment to see your Dr.

They wanted me on Vytorin ...my Cholesterol was Thru the roof,,,I have so far managed to get it down by just over 100 points thru diet and Exercise...and drinking those cholesterol shots with every Fat intake meal...taking Omega 3.6.9. Flaxseed oil tabs...the fish tabs made me itchy and smell funny...so I am Working on it this way instead...they told me I would NEVER get it down on my own...seems to me I am Proving them WRONG !! I Love that !!

also...letting go of ANY Stress that you CAN...Stress causes your Cholesterol to go UP...some people are Totally unaware of that !!

GL To YOU !! Hugs !! "
