I : I am extremely worried about your condition and you must be seen as an emergency. Simvastatin can cause those symptoms and is well known to do so. Please be seen immediately and do not try to treat yourself anymore for your symptoms. You must have blood work obtained including a ck level and a potassium level. This is an emergency so please be seen immediately.

Muscle cramps or leg: Could be disturbances in electrolytes , blood flow, nerve input. Vascular conditions, endocrine abnormalities , low back or peripheral nerve issues. Not just dehydration. Suggest you see your pcp soon.
