statins and food

[Radars]

I have been reading elsewhere that you should not eat potassium rich foods while on atorvastatin, I have got osteoporosis and the foods that you aren't supposed to eat are good for osteoporosis bananas broccoli, etc,as it can cause kidney issues. anyone else know this, I gave a urine sample 4wks ago and there was a trace of protein in my urine, I have to give another urine sample shortly, if the 10mgs of atorvastatin has caused ckd disease I will go mad, I have got a face to face appointment with gp tomorrow, I will ask about stopping the statin, bit worried now.

Interesting to read your post as I'm in a similar position to you. Have osteoporosis and hiatus hernia/acid reflux. I favour many foods supposed to be good for both conditions, including bananas/broccoli/leafy green veg. Been on 20mg atorvastatin for 2 years. Last two annual eGFRcreat blood tests were below normal range. Tested for Albuminuria (protein in urine) in Jan 2024 - normal. Awaiting another urine test after recent annual eGFRcreat test. Hope to hear your outcome, will let you know mine (will be early Dec).

thanks, forgot to mention I had 2 zoledronic acid infusions which are not good for kidneys.
