I get pain in my shoulders which I think is bursitis, not actually diagnosed which occurs as soon as I lie down so getting comfortable in bed is a nightmare. They are fine during the day.
 
Hi @dingdong, sorry I don't have any helpful advice, just wanted to sorry you are feeling fed up, and no wonder when you're in pain. Rooting for you and hope you can get your shoulder fixed soon. I've been having hip problems but the physio said it couldn't be arthritis as I had the most flexible hips he'd ever seen which hasnt made the pain go away! Good luck at the podiatry clinic.
 
I think Statins can cause joint pain have a look at the side effects leaflet
