@jlharsh 5 years ago I had 7 fractured vertebrae. My dexa scans show I have osteopenia. I also had several falls after that and did not have any breaks. My doctor thinks the deterioration of my spine nay have been cause by a genetic malformation but he really doesn't know. I had severe pain from muscle spasms for years but I'm so much better now but do have neuropathy on my left side and issues from losing 3" in height. I can handle my daily functions but my activity is still limited to some weight bearing exercises and modified yoga stretches etc.
As for Lipitor, I only took that for a week. I am on Lovastatin 40 mg. I ordered the Ubiquinol coQ10 yesterday so I'm hoping that will help my muscle pain
