Hi
I tried lipitor and zocor and they both had bad side effects.
Zocor made my bones feel brittle and my muscles ache.
Lipitor made my muscles ache and both my upper legs would go numb sometimes.
My doctor just put me on Advicor.
What do you know about this drug?
My level was down to 180 on lipitor. I went up to 330 when I went off the lipitor and ate poorly.
Is garlic pills another way to lower levels.
Thanks
JIM
