Who is taking Lipitor for cholesterol and also has anxiety and heart palps or Atrial Fibrillation?
I have been taking Lipitor for 6 years, now during the last three years I have been experiencing Atrial Fibrillation and anxiety, I was admitted into hospital three times for my heart and am seeing a Cardiologist. They all told me that my AF was brought on by alcohol and was my anxiety, I stopped drinking completely now for just over a year but still have had slight heart zaps on a weekly basis, so I just started getting used to it and keep regular doctor visits, now why I''m writing this is because on my last blood test the doctor said my liver enzymes were slightly elevated, I asked him why? and he said it could be the Lipitor so he decided to change me to Crestor, when I got home I thought to myself ""Stuff This Medication"" its now hurting my Liver so I stopped taking it, I didn't care anymore, now the funny thing is within a day of stopping Lipitor I feel better, my body feels better, my atrial fibrillation has stopped, its been two one month now and I haven't had one problem, I feel so much better, now was it the Lipitor that caused my AF? I googled this and apparently statin drugs Can cause heart Problems, remember satins cause muscle weakness its proven, so what is your Heart? its a muscle!!!!

I am an ex Lipitor taker. I will never touch another statin. They are dangerous... and that is an understatement. If you really need to lower your cholesterol take Vitamin C, a Pharmaceutical Grade Molecularly distilled omega-3 DHA supplement and eat more "natural" fats found in food like organic butter from grass-fed cows, "wild caught" salmon, and avocados. Too little natural fat in your body is worse than not enough and the belief that saturated fat leads to coronary artery disease is a total myth. The lipid hypothesis was created to sell statins and margarine. Also avoid eating or drinking anything with trans-fat and high fructose corn syrup.
