After seeing last night's programme on statins i would like to come off them i have been on them 10 years i am constanly in pain with hips arms and shoulders would i have to ween myself off or just go cold turkey
I know what you mean about the statins, my husband had bad leg cramps on lipitor, it is a side effect. You do not need to ween yourself off, since there is no withdrawal effects. Garlic and fish oil are good for lowering cholesterol, however, its always good to check with your doctor before changing your medication.
