Yep, the cholesterol meds did / do the same to me too. The docs started me on them while in the hospital, with a couple days I was suffering all over and couldn't get comfortable. I asked the docs why 'cause I wasn't hurting when I went in... It wasn't until I got out and I went to see my chiro cracker and I told her my story, she didn't beat an eyelash and said stop taking these, you'll
start to feel better in a couple days. And she was right! D_mn doc at the hospital he must've known this... grrr.. I only take a half dose now, but they don't need to know that.
