Zomig

User Ratings:
9.2	Effectiveness

5.2	Side Effects
3.7	Holistic Benefits

I quit Lipitor almost 3 years ago. I was very close to not being able to work and had already had to give up all social contacts, was afraid to drive anymore and less than a year away from being on disability and not know WHY! Within the first 2 weeks of being on this drug, I sat down to eat lunch one day and when I went to get up, it felt like someone had hit me in both knees at the same time with a sledge hammer. On a scale od 1 to 10, 10 being the worst.. the pain was a 10! I had NO prior... View full comment
