I had a stroke 4 months ago and after they started statins I had this pain in my feet and now right hand. Is this going to get worse I try to find something for relief.
Hello @garydoys -- welcome to Connect. I read in your early posts that you had a stroke and the doctors started you on statins. Have you talked with your doctors about the side effects you are feeling in your feet and your right hand?'

@trpain -- welcome to Connect. Thank you for sharing your symptoms and treatments. Lots of information available on statin induced neuropathy and you are right, it is very scary. I'm glad you are back to normal. I had the same conversation with my doctor and told her I would use diet and exercise to bring the numbers back under control.
