Big B;
I read an article from info. on natural cures about a fruit called
Citrus Bergamot. It's a fruit grown in Spin, it's about the size of a lime but the color of a lemon. Anyways it's available as a supplement that supposedly will replace all and any Cholesterol medications with absolutely NO side effects.
I asked my doctor if she could get me a prescription for it but she told that I would have to see a Naturopathic doctor because a regular doctor can or aren't allowed to prescribe supplements. I think it's cause the big Farma has full control.
So I was just checking to see if anyone here has heard of this Citrus Burgamot and if you've ever tried it .
I've been on Atorvastatin for 5 years now and I don't like all the bad things it does to our bodies. I mean its bad enough getting old let alone having to deal with neuropathy, muscle pain and everything else that comes with it . Believe me if I could afford it I would get all my medications through Naturopathic doctor. All your stories and info. are greatly appreciated, thank you in advance for your response.
Big B.

Thanks for the info @26sabrina - I see my primary in July and will bring it up. The reason she switched over to Lipitor is because I was having some side effects on Zetia that I don't experience on Lipitor.

Hola Qué interesante! Podrías compartir alguna de esas investigaciones sobre estatinas y Neuropatía Periférica? Me sería de gran utilidad leerlas Gracias!
