I am not sure that my problem is from Zocor but I can't believe how much better I am doing after stopping it. I will see what my PCP thinks when I see her on the 25th.

I have dropped 4 pounds since Wednesday so that's definitely water weight. I was really stunned when I saw my Neuro July 29th and had gained 10 pounds. I'm sure not all of it is water weight but some of it has to be.

I'm just trying to keep my legs elevated and drinking lots of water. We will see but I'm thinking I had a reaction to Zocor. Sure is strange that my problems started after my Avonex injection 4 days after starting Zocor.
