Suggest Remedies For Persistent Pain In The Muscles, Back And Upper Thigh
Doctor, I recently stopped taking Lipitor after 71/2 year s. I had always had muscle pain, but not like what I have been experiencing even after being off them for two months under Dr. s supervision. Both bicept s, shoulder, and my lower back (pain) and left upper thigh (burning & tingling sensation).I am now back on Lipitor 40mg. Also there is a funny taste in my mouth, even after brushing & rinsing....

Hello,
I think you should discuss with your caring doctor to stop taking Lipitor. Next, get your liver and kidneys checked. Plus, should get checked blood electrolytes. Start to take Ubiquinol Q10 and magnesium supplement for burning and tingling sensation and pain you are feeling.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Albana Sejdini, General & Family Physician
