    Hi, well my new Dr has taken me off the lipitor, lower my Levo dose and ordered testing for Polymyalgia Rheumatica for my muscle and joint pain. I will feel better soon..

    Has anyone had any issues with Atorvastatin (Lipitor)? I have been taking it now for the last 3 months, I’m wondering if that has something to do with all this? I have been so regular with my levels for the last 3 yrs.. Until recently..

    Yes, I moved my dr appt up, now scheduled for the 2 of March. Just a couple more weeks of feeling horrible. I didn’t think I would ever have to go back to the “spoon theory” but over the weekend, I did! I have come to the conclusion this new dr must not know to much about Graves or how to treat it. I am just confused as to why he hasn’t called to make an adjustment, or at the least tell me something, anything! Symptoms I am having; I have always had a difficult time explaining them. I have no (zero) strength. I’m so exhausted when doing the smallest tasks and my muscle are just jellolike. It even hurts to breathe at times. My heart was pounding last night as I was lying down. I weight 195 lbs and I’m 5’9″ tall, so not overly over weight for every task to be so impossible. I get about 3 hrs asleep a night. My job is very very stressful every day and I know that doesn’t help. To top it all off, my right eye has felt funny for the last month or so. I when to the eye dr last week and its starting to bulge, currently at 2cm. :0(. Again, I thought I had past that 2 yrs eye disease after treatment mark, only to be off on my meds and have it effect my eyes. I’m feeling sad and alone thru all this..Thanks for you help..
