Frank,

Yes, it is apparently the Zocor that is making my life miserable. What a crappy year I have had. I'm ready for the drama to go away.

Zocor is evidently attacking the week muscles at the injections site since I have injecting Avonex into the muscle for almost a year.

It's not an anitibody reacting to Avonex because I was doing just fine on it until I started Zocor.

Google Zocor or any statin cholesterol medication and check out the side effects. It talks about muscle damage and it can be very bad.

I hope I get the blood work results today and everything is just fine and dandy. Then all I have to do is wait until this gets completely out of my system and hope and pray that my muscles will heal without permanent damage.

Hugs,
Becky

I get this carpy feeling the answer is no, how about a suggestion of a specialist? I pray blood work is fine and any kidney test come back clean prayers for you and you to feel better real soon Becky
