statins

Posted , 3 users are following.

I suffer muscle and join pain all the time for which I take strong painkillers, I started taking statins following a procedure for a blocked corotid artery about a month after taking the statins the pain intensified an it was very difficult to walk I came off the statins and a few days later the pain subsided.

I have tried a lower dose and also a different type but the results are the same. my cholesterol level was norm but because of what happened I am considered at risk.

What concerns me about taking statins is that it not only reduces bad but good cholesterol as well for your liver to send the right stuff around your body

    Hi mickmacmick - statins are a gateway drug to other illnesses including type 2 diabetes, dementia and rhabdomyelosis, a muscle wasting disease that presents as cramps and muscle failure. Some of us are more sensitive to the gradual poisoning of our system than others. I was on Atorvastatin for 2 years and it destroyed my health as the docs denied, denied, denied. I fired them and tossed their poison. It has taken 4 years to return to some trace of my old self. Diet, exercise and ignoring the fear-mongering used by docs to manipulate their customers/guinea pigs/collateral has seen my health improve. The starvation of cholesterol production in the body is unnatural and causes other serious, some irreversible, diseases.
