I quite crestor a year ago after taking it three months and have extreme muscle pain in the left calf. When I told my doctor I quit, he insisted I take Zitia, a "non statin." After three days the muscle pain and cramps increased. I quit (four months ago) and continue to have chronic pain in my calf and sleepless nights from leg pain. I am exasperated and still trying to figure out how to talk to my doctor. On medicare, I am stuck with this primary physician whose only answer was to pass me on to an orthopedic surgeon. He thought I might have spine problems. I've given up on medicine and I am grateful for a Dr. Graveline and all the information on the net. I am sure statins are the cause of my pain. nancy
