I have tried several of the statins. Medical advice says if you have pain symptoms, stop taking them for a day. If the pain stops, don't go back on them and talk to your doctor.

This is excellent advice. I was on statins for two years and began experiencing cramps. I was diagnosed with necrotizing myositis which is potentially quite serious and it has taken months to recover. Hopefully I will get back to prior activity levels but this is nothing to take lightly. Talk to your GP and your cardiologist if you have muscle cramps.
