Hi Kj1uk
I have had two types of statin in the last 4 years and on both occasions had to have them stopped within days of starting them. Vasostatin was given to me 4 years ago, the doctor had to stop it within a month as it felt like there were thousands of ants crawling under my skin. I was prescribed simvastatin 2 years ago. Never again! These drugs cost me my business, reduced my physical condition to a painful wreck and has left me with periods of shooting pain throughout my body. I took them under protest for 5 days, as I told the diabetic nurse that I could not take statins and explained the concerns with vasostatin two years earlier.
Now my doctor has put on my records that I must NOT under an circumstances be prescribed statins.
Also remember, family history plays a big part, also other areas of your life such as stress, smoking, weight gain etc can too cause your cholestrol to remain high.
I hope this helps, feel free to write to me if you need someone to talk to.
Wishing you a beautiful future. :-)
