Becky, I also hope this is a temporary thing.

I also take a generic of zocor. I don't have any problems with swelling, but I do remember asking my doctors prior to ms dx if my muscle spasms could be attributed to the statin. Now I have experience stiffness plus spasms. I wonder what would happen if I quit taking it. I may try it for one week just to see.

Barb,

I hope this is temporary and that it was caught before any permanent damage was done. That really scares me.

I was on generic Zocor. My problems are swelling in my thighs at the injection site where the muscles and nerves are weak from have intramuscular shots of Avonex. You might want to check the stiffness with your doctor. I have had muscle spasms since my MS began in 1992 but this reaction is very different.

Hugs,
Becky
