I can sympathize, as I had severe muscle pain last night and got very little sleep myself. My cardiologist doubled the strength of my statin after this latest stint and the pain is severe. **** that, my cholesterol is not very high anyway.
It's the Brilinta......got a rash on my feet and and on my stomach and it is spreading. Went by the Dr's office and he is telling me to stop the Brilinta and go back to the Clopidigrel.

My Cardiologist is fine with the dose of my Statin....I take Atorvastatin 80MG and it works fine.

Just getting past these first few days is the challenge.

I've taken Atorvastatin for 10 years. No issues. Just my experience.

I have been on it for 17 years at 20mg and he just bumped it to 40, too strong for me it seems. Maybe because my cholesterol is so low to start with?

If your cholesterol is low, why are you on a statin?

Sorry, I think statins are a money grab and I'm seeing a lot of long term users here.

No side effects that you know of. Statins have been shown to cause liver issues.

But you weren't really the target of my question.

For example, my wife had high triglycerides but low cholesterol so they put her on a statin. She now has virtually no good cholesterol, her bad cholesterol is also nearly non-existent and it hasn't helped her triglycerides. She had to, wait for it, change her diet.

Sorry, just catching up here, been out planting trees.

I hadn't heard that about the liver before. My regular Dr. recently had a liver scan done on me (excellent insurance) and She determined I have non alcohol related cirrhosis of the liver. (I thought to myself, holy shit how much would I have to drink to have it be the cause)

Does your Mrs. have a lot of work related stress? Mine was high until I retired then it plummeted.

Once again, I think the Drs. cover their asses for potential legal issues. They had me on Plavix for over ten years before I talked a Dr. into taking me off of it. It was working, so none of them wanted to take a chance even though the more recent subscriptions said for about a year if I remember correctly.


Highest my Cholesterol has ever been was 166 in 2007 when I was 95% blocked in 4 and they had to do emergency stint procedures. Last month it was just below 120 total. At one time it got down to the low 70s total.

Yeah. ..my Cardiologist is sure my issue is the Brilinta since it is the only new med I have.

Been taking Atorvastatin for 7 years and my cholesterol is fine.

I had to google Brilinta, does basically the same thing as Plavix only stronger and faster acting.
