Now this makes MUCH more sense to me. It didn't seem that it could be a injection reaction of any kind, since the pain happened in the opposite leg of the shot . . . and especially if the doc thought it was NOT the med itself.

I don't know why it didn't occur to me either, that maybe it was another med you started around the same time.

If it is because of a side effect from Zocor, would this a temporary side-effect, or could it potentially permanent damage?
