Raised LFT due to Statins

Hi all,

Had my bloods done last week and was told I had a raised LFT of 96. Had them repeated this week and it’s now at 182. My cardiac nurse wants to drop my dosage of 80mg Atorvastatin to 20mg and the consultant has agreed.

My question is, has anyone else suffered this and how quickly does the liver repair itself? Already got massive heart issues, don’t fancy having a dodgy liver as well!

Thanks in advance!
