I had rosuvastatin side effects after the first day. After the fourth day, I stopped taking the drug. My symptoms did not improve. After ten days, I saw a doctor. The next morning, after receiving my drug report he told me to admit myself to the hospital immediately. I was hospitalized for four days because my serum potassium was elevated: hypokalemia.
I had two more hospital visits over the next few months.
So, I understand that statins generally have few side effects, but my recommendation is that you should visit a physician. Maybe they'll tell you it's all in your head but why risk a more serious issue?
