Guest guest Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Good luck to you, Adele! I took my last dose of Lipitor 8 years ago. Monday I'm seeing a nephrologist to try to find out why my kidneys are failing. It will be interesting to see what his reaction is when I tell him about the horrific side effects I suffered (and still do) from the Lipitor. Will he deny it? My primary care doctor certainly blames the statins for the continuing decline in my health.From: Adele Weingartner <motheradele@...>Lipitor Sent: Thu, March 31, 2011 8:47:02 AMSubject: Re: Re: Aching and Sore Legs I took my last one over three years ago, and have still not recovered.

Guest guest Posted April 1, 2011 Report Share Posted April 1, 2011 Sorry, it looks like my stupid computer sent a premature reply a few minutes ago. Has anybody noticed two major trends in current medical practice, which I think would get even worse under Obamacare " Doctors ordering patients to take meds like the patient should be a total puppet, no matter what?? Many of the more modern meds " work " by blocking or messing with normal biochemical processes? Statins work by shortcircuiting cholestrol processes; acid blockers like Pepcid work by blocking enzymes produced by many different organs-(my son had what turned out to be a tumor on the pancreas, but various drs had him on acid blockers for eight years treating symptoms, and he had every horrible side effect in the book), many blood sugar drugs work by messing with glucagon process in the liver, many psychoactive drugs work by again messing with major biochemical processes. Did anybody ever think that maybe, just maybe, our bodies make cholestrol because it NEEDS it??? Do researchers think they know more than God??? I have a very good friend whose father has been on hospice since last July. At that time he wound up in the hospital with heart issues, and they didn't think he'd make it. After a week, they took him off of all his meds and sent him home. He is still hanging in there! His insurance company is hassling the family because of the bills, and saying " You weren't supposed to live this long! " From what I can gather, the dad's mental function now is better than it was a year ago. I personally got off of ALL the meds they had me on after a heart attack ten years ago. I am still working full time and eat eggs, cheese, yogurt, fish, chicken, fruits and veggies, very few carbs. My weight has been stable for two years at the lowest level at 70 pounds below my top weight and 30 more than my skinny college weight. What I do take is cinnamon for sugar, MSN for joints, hyaluranic acid, benfothiamine and folic acid for neuropathy, and COQ10 and fish oil. Just in the last few months I feel like I'm finally coming out of the leftover mental fog that goes back to getting off of Mevacor in 2004 (there was a major improvement at 2 weeks, more in the first year, and finally....)

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Alas Bobby this will not solve the problem! Blocking cholesterol also blocks CO-Q10 and Co-q10 is the main antioxident for the mitochondria in addition to being an integral part of the electron transport chain where 34 out of 38 of the ATP molecules for every cycle (in a healthy person)are created. It is the antioxident properties that cause (when missing)the real long term problem and that is MUTATIONS. mutations in the mtDNA and nDNA cause all of the long term symptoms are from. While DNA has repair functions, those functions are overwhelmed by the onslaught. there is no real recovery...function will improve some from whatever repairs are occomplished but that's it AND every time one of us pushes to hard more mutations occur. > >> > >> From: bonnie_calgaro <retirement2004@> > >> Subject: Aching and Sore Legs > >> Lipitor > >> Date: Thursday, March 17, 2011, 4:42 AM > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> Â > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> > >> Hi, > >> > >> I currently take Crestor 10mg.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 david When the mutation occurs - does it then 'mimic' all these other conditions - or does it really become something else? Because when the statin purges the system of everything, it would appear that the body implodes with every condition known to man. When you inform your Dr or specialist of this fact - they think that you are some kind of hypochondriac. I know because after experiencing every side effect over the past 5 yrs (3 yrs Statin free) I am left suffering with severe memory loss, cognitive problems and muscle myopathy - all over my body. I have lost between 60-70% of my muscles as they appear to be cannabalising themselves.My neurologist cannot explain it, and will not accept the statin responsible .My immunologist does however state that statins sometimes may damage muscle - however once stopped all should be well!!!Ha Ha.Pamela > > >> > > >> From: bonnie_calgaro <retirement2004@> > > >> Subject: Aching and Sore Legs > > >> Lipitor > > >> Date: Thursday, March 17, 2011, 4:42 AM > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> Â > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> Hi, > > >> > > >> I currently take Crestor 10mg.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 exactly correct. The damage is done. not only that but the stage is set for further damage. with comprimised mitochondria, ATP production relies more and more on processes that produce greater levels of free radicals and that in turn causes further mutations. the only way to avoid this is to pace yourself (at a greatly reduced pace) so as not to require switching over to the " dirtier " processes. Typically the more active the " victim " is the slower any recovery is and the more likely that the condition will degrade even further. > > >> > > >> From: bonnie_calgaro <retirement2004@> > > >> Subject: Aching and Sore Legs > > >> Lipitor > > >> Date: Thursday, March 17, 2011, 4:42 AM > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> Â > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> > > >> Hi, > > >> > > >> I currently take Crestor 10mg.

Guest guest Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 This is exactly what happened to me. My CPK levels had slowly been going down over the past 3 years, and then this fall I joined the "Y" and did some agressive walking around the track 3 to 4 times a week and also lifted weights and worked out on the machines. If I overdid the exercise, my thigh muscles would just burn for a few days afterwards. When I had my bloodwork done after doing this for about 4 months, my CPK had gone back up to where it had originally been with the statin poisoning--my HDL went down 5 or 6 points as well, and my triglycerides were quite high. I've learned my lesson, and I hope by just doing moderate walking a few times a week, my CPK will go back down again. I hate that this condition is irreversible!

Guest guest Posted April 8, 2011 Report Share Posted April 8, 2011 Pamela, Actually the mutations that matter effect the cellular metabolism to the point that every function in the body that requires energy becomes comprimised. even cell types not affected by the mutations are dragged down as ATP is depleted from heavy usage cells the bodies ability to replace the ATP from natural losses begins to affect all organs and systems....you will find that All symptoms go away if you do nothing and allow atp stores to rebuild.... Have your neurologist look into the connection between ATP depletion and apoptosis (cell suicide). or better yet find one that knows. the connection between statins, co-q10, atp production, ATP depletion, and cell death is claer to anyone with half a brain... > > > >> > > > >> From: bonnie_calgaro <retirement2004@> > > > >> Subject: Aching and Sore Legs > > > >> Lipitor > > > >> Date: Thursday, March 17, 2011, 4:42 AM > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> Â > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> Hi, > > > >> > > > >> I currently take Crestor 10mg.

Have your neurologist look into the connection between ATP depletion and apoptosis (cell suicide). or better yet find one that knows. the connection between statins, co-q10, atp production, ATP depletion, and cell death is claer to anyone with half a brain... > > > >> > > > >> From: bonnie_calgaro <retirement2004@> > > > >> Subject: Aching and Sore Legs > > > >> Lipitor > > > >> Date: Thursday, March 17, 2011, 4:42 AM > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> Â > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> > > > >> Hi, > > > >> > > > >> I currently take Crestor 10mg.
