[|Human|] SInce on Lipitor I have developed tight and painful calfs when I walk to far or to fast. I ve had 2 dopler tests on my legs and the test was fine. I m ready to off statins. I m 4 11 and weigh 128. I m 73 years old and have always been ac tive and worked outside in the carpentry business, mowing lawns splitting and chopping wood and also 10 years of weight lifting I m still active until the calf muscles act up I shovel snow and do all house work. Thanks Shag
[|AI|]  Hi Shag, I have gone through the details. You have developed calf pain while on Lipitor, and now you are off statins. But the pain persists. In my opinion since you have stopped statins, there may be some other cause of pain. Due to your occupation I think you might be suffering from disc disease. So start painkillers, and muscle relaxants and if you feel no improvement in 10 days, get MRI of Lower back.
