Zocor ????

i was on lipator for about 1 month until I just could take the muscle pain in my legs and arms,I call my Dr. he took me off for a month and started me on Zocor,I've been taking them for two weeks i start to notice a funny feeling in my head that went down to my jaw this happen a few times only last a few seconds but felt like a life time because it did'nt make me feel good.I woke up this a.m. with neck pain and having some tumors in my hand,my blood pressure was elevated some today I don't know if this is from the medication or stress I call my doctor today and he told me to stop taking Zocor for 4 weeks and he wants to start on something else.I'm not sure if I want to start on yet another pill.I also missed my period,I just wondering if anybody else are having some of these same side effects.
