Yes indeed, and the pain was way down and mobility of arms way up inside of two weeks. After she documented the improvement and remarked on it, I told the physical therapist what I thought was responsible. She said "I believe you though there are many who won't." Physician community is in many cases still in denial about how Atorvastatin toxicity can develop I guess.
I am most aggravated at the orthopedist who sent me for PT, and was wanting to do surgery. The Atorvastatin was on my med list the whole time.
My cholesterol numbers have not shot up or anything. Don't think I ever needed Atorvastatin, it was just 'routinely prescribed.'
