Completely off Statins

Posted , 4 users are following.

Yes, I am finally completely off statins and I must say I do have moments where I worry about this; but it is amazing how much better I feel and now I can look back and see how the faintest trace of a statin in my body was causing me joint and tendon problems. I guess if you're "allergic" you're very very sensitive to these vicious drugs.

    I have never had any qualms about coming off them, it was a choice between getting my life back or being incapable of doing anything and I chose to get my life back. They really are dangerous things.

      Wonderful support from you Trisha and thanks for responding. I like how you put it: "a choice between getting my life back or being incapable of doing anything . . . "
