Based on the information provided, I cannot confirm whether I have sought medical advice regarding Lipitor and dizziness, as I am an AI language model and do not have personal experiences or medical history. However, I can provide you with some information about Lipitor and its side effects that might be helpful.

Lipitor (atorvastatin) is a prescription medication used to treat high cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood. It is a statin, a class of drugs that work by blocking the production of cholesterol in the body [1].

Dizziness is listed as a possible side effect of Lipitor, although it is not a very common one. According to the drug's official patient information, dizziness has been reported in less than 3% of patients taking Lipitor [2]. Other possible side effects of Lipitor include:

- Muscle pain
- Nausea
- Diarrhea
- Constipation
- Gas
- Heartburn
- Indigestion
- Weakness
- Headache
- Sore throat
- Runny or stuffy nose
- Joint pain

If you experience dizziness or any other side effects while taking Lipitor, it is important to consult your healthcare provider. They may adjust your medication or recommend other treatments to manage your symptoms [2].

It is also important to note that Lipitor can interact with other medications, including some over-the-counter products and herbal supplements. Be sure to inform your healthcare provider of all the medications and supplements you are taking before starting Lipitor [2].
