anyone heard of getting neuropathy from zocor?
this seemed to happen to me. anyone else?
Hi djreg,
Thank you for your question. Zocor, as well as other medications belonging to the same class, has been associated with myopathy, or muscle pain, due to breakdown of muscle tissues in the body. This can lead to serious complications, including kidney problems. However, the statins are not known to cause neuropathy, or nerve pain. You can read more about Zocor and its side effects by clicking the blue links. I hope this helps.
Best of luck,
Casey

Thanks to a statin, my sister is now in a wheelchair with neuropathy. I am sorry it has also happened to you. When I was diagnosed my doctor wanted to put me on one, said a diabetic should take a statin "just in case" I refused then, and will do so again if it's ever brought up. In my opinion ( and that's just what it is, my opinion) no one should take them.
