Had burning each night when started, doctor said to stay with it, burning did stop. Slowly developed diarrhea, nausea, weakness in legs, severe neck pain, loss of memory - academic work poor, forget what I plan to do in next few minutes. Told doctor about neck pain, he recommended a chiropractor. Went to PT instead (insurance covers) - couldn't do assigned exercises due to pain. Stopped taking Simvastatin for 3 days - feel like "fog" has lifted, neck pain gone, no more nausea, much more energy.
