BFF,

It wouldn't hurt to ask Jim's doctor about the Zocor. I never thought about it until yesterday. Today is my first day without it and I can't tell any difference but I would imagine it will take a while to get out of my system. I've been drinking water like crazy to flush my system and my kidneys are working just fine.

I think it's mainly a concern because this can be a sign of kidney damage. I didn't see the rare symptoms though. So far Jim's kidney functions are fine but if a rare side effect is muscle pain it does make you wonder. I just know if I was to say to his doctor it could be the Zocor he'd say it's Jim's ms. He may be right, who knows since his kidneys are fine.
