My husband takes Lipitor and has lost hair on his legs and has some neuropathy like complaints.

I know statins cause myopathy, but I too wonder if they cause neuropathy.

The doc wants me to take it and I am really leery at this point, however, if you are on it, don't stop it! You need to talk to the doc. Hubby is still on Lipitor because he has too many risk factors to go off.
