to NMP,
I don't know but it is a plausible explanation especially given the timing. Did you have the same issues the first time you were on Lipitor (atorvastatin)?
I’m just really stressed out that it’s something serious.
The fact the pain is inconsistent in place and intensity suggests it isn't, but this is something only your doctor can determine so get it checked if only for your peace of mind.
