Hi, thanks for writing to Chat Doctor. You might have consulted an orthosurgeon for muscle ache related problem for which he might have thought that Trip (atorvastatin) is the cause. As the orthosurgeon has thought, statins tend to produce severe myalgic is some people. But as you suffer from TIA, you are not supposed to stop either Trip or Depart which may show serious consequences. I suggest you to consult your treating doctor and discuss the issues. Hope this information is helpful. Good day
