Lipitor = Muscle aching and RLS

I have been on Lipitor for and have suffered with rls and terrible muscle aching in my legs for years. Finally about 3 weeks my dr told me to stop, wait a week and if there were no issues, try cutting the pill in half and see what that produced. Unfortunately, those symptoms started moving back, so stopped once again. All my good numbers are great and bad numbers are great also. I'm taking some of Andrew Lessman's Cholesterol vitamins and will wait and see what my numbers are at the next office visit. If anyone out there is having these issues with your legs and is taking a statin or has stopped, please let me know how you are doing and what new drug you were switched to. All my leg aching and jumping are gone! i just can't believe it! Thanks Forrest
