I can't believe the statins are still being prescribed. I tried both Lipitor and Crestor, same side effects, Crestor has a little more fun to deal with, hematuria and protein spilling into the kidneys. My legs felt like restless leg syndrome and my back was starting to get that same uncomfortalble ache.

Thank goodness when I started losing weight, my cholesterol and triglycerides came right down and fortunately, I don't need any medication for that anymore.
