Just a layman’s hunch, here. Are you taking a cholesterol lowering medication? Something such as Lipitor or any other of the numerous ones out there? This happened to me. For over a year my hip hurt so bad that every step taken, or not (just sitting) would hurt with a sharp pain. Had to walk with a cane or, worse, a walker. They warn that these cause muscle pain to upper arms/shoulders, which was verified by friends who do suffer. NO ONE mentioned pains in other parts of the body. Stopped the specific medication - began taking Niacin instead. Amazing results. Have had no such pain since. Good luck to you. As Bette Davis once said... . Old age ain’t no place for sissies.”
No. No Lipitor or that other one. My cholesterol is fine.
I am familiar with its effects, having taken care of a friend who usex it.
We found that by switching her to the other med and back to Lipitor every month, her body wouldn’t suffer.
Every 4 weeks changed em and she never had another problem
Funny, I thought my friend said “Old age ain’t for sisies” never knee it had an attribution
YES!!! I get aches on every statin known to Man.
2 grams of Niacin a day for me!
