"I have lost a lot of hapiness" tells me its not the lipitor that is causing your issue
hello there, ireland calling. my husband was on lipitor for two and a half years, now he has been diagnosed with als. we are devastated. neurogolist said to stop lipitor but insists it did not cause als. my husband was a very athletic active man, his cholestrol was at 5.8 and because his dad had died of heart attack at 58, he was put on lipitor by out gp. am i crazy or is there a link here between lipitor and als ? please anyone out there, if you are in this same position or have been, talk to me. we need answers. thank you for taking time to read this.
