Statin Dilemma
I still do not want to take the
statins
, due to everything I have found out about them. My dilemma is that I have a Lipid Clinic telephone appointment this Friday; therefore, I need to give my answer around taking or not taking
statins
.

Leg pain with other than statins and other meds.
After quitting
statins
because of severe leg pain I went to Welchol and had the same problem. I then went to the injection method with Repatha now, after six weeks it appears my leg pain is returning with a vengeance. (Leg pain did go away after quitting the other drugs).

medication can give you more problems
I am very concerned that not enough caution is given by doctors when prescribing medication with
statins
and blood pressure tablets in my case I have had a bad experience with raised GGT and have to keep insisting on blood tests to check if meds are having an effect and I worry how many people are medicated

Post stent drugs
Hi I had a stent after a mild heart attack and was put on six drugs including
statins
at a level of 80, 2 blood thinners and a beta blocker and an aspirin. I stopped one blood thinner Rampiril because of the cough. I have been told that this bombing with drugs is normal.

Zytiga dosage
Also i'm on 2x5mg of prednisone - i see people mention going down to 2x2.5 mg (5mg total per day) - i would also like to look at that - not because of cost - but just trying the reduce my overall drug consumption (also on BP and
statins
).

Blood pressure medications and prostate cancer
We used Cox regression to calculate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) for risk of PCa death and initiation of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with adjustment for age, tumor extent, use of
statins
and for Charlson Comorbidity Index.

Old Subject re Statin use and PCa
Also the acclaimed prostate doc “Snuffy Myers” if I recall correctly, advocated rosuvastatin, among other
statins
. I’m thinking that there is more to this than “hydro” vs “ lipophillic” mechanisms and that is an over simplistic analysis.

High blood pressure, high cholesterol - Oops
Tried
statins
10 years ago, which made me look and feel like an old lady. Now I am trying again, due to this new doctor saying the drugs have changed.

Update on statins
So my PCP asked about putting me on
statins
. Thank-you all for your help. I told her as long as they didn't work against my kidneys. She started me on Atorvastatin 10 mg per day. I've been taking it for about 10 days now but I don't know if I can handle it.

Update on statins and muscular pain
So approx. a week ago I wrote regarding the pains I am experiencing in legs which I thought were down to
statins
. I telephoned my GP practice and was told that I would receive a call back and because it was non-urgent, the Dr would ring me. Six days later!! Dr rang me today.
