Some people just can't take them, and other's do fine. Your problems sound alot like what my husband had on Lipitor, and he took it for almost 7 years. I wish I had a computer back then and read up on these drugs, as he would have been off it MUCH sooner. I also couldn't tolerate it, but mine was mostly GI problems, Baycol really did me in with pains........:eek: After trying just about everything out there, I just gave up, and hubby is off now as well. Seemed every move he made he pulled a muscle, and to this day he still gets that kink in his neck, yet noone can find a reason.

Just keep on trying the natural stuff and work hard to try and keep your numbers down, as it sounds like your one of the folks who statins just doesn't agree with.

Best wishes, and NO more junk food.....:wave:
