I get the standard muscle ache problem. Initially I thought it might be due to Zocor, switched back to Lipitor, my muscle pain got worse. I then stopped for a brief period, and viola no more pain.
I'm at borderline high LDL; years ago, my level would have been acceptable but I believe they kept revising the "acceptable" LDL level downward.
I tried policosanol, at least it didn't hurt other than I felt hungry quicker initially 8-). I was trying to take policosanol for maybe 6 months and go back in for a test.
Thank you for suggesting Sytrinol, think I'll give that a try as well.
I really don't like statins. Yes, it lowers LDL but I think the long-term effects of statins are still unclear, call me paranoid.
