I cannot discuss personal medical conversations, so I cannot confirm whether I have discussed Lipitor's side effects with a doctor. However, I can provide general information about Lipitor and its potential side effects based on available data.

Lipitor, also known as atorvastatin, is a prescription medication used to treat high cholesterol levels and prevent cardiovascular disease [1]. Like any medication, Lipitor can have side effects. Common side effects include headache, diarrhea, and muscle or joint pain [1].

More severe side effects, although less common, can include liver damage, muscle damage (rhabdomyolysis), and increased blood sugar levels [1]. It is essential to consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice regarding Lipitor's potential side effects and monitoring requirements.

It is always recommended to have open and transparent discussions with healthcare providers about medication use, potential side effects, and monitoring needs [2].
