Thank you so much for taking the time to share this information with me. I’ve had negative/borderline horrible side effects from so many medications that I usually do my due diligence now before trying anything. There doesn’t seem to be much out there that doesn’t have a laundry list of side effects attached. I don’t recall seeing neuropathy as a side effect for rosuvastatin, but I may have to do more digging, which I will do!! I just got my blood work back and my statin is doing its job… Cholesterol down to 139! Don’t know if that’s the medication’s doing or my own. My diet has changed dramatically over the last year, especially. My anxiety over all these health issues keeps my appetite to a minimum and when I do eat, it’s something pretty simple. So, I may be getting my cholesterol in line without medication. I won’t know until I stop it! Thanks again for the help! I hope you continue to feel better with each day!

I took rosuvastatin for a couple of years . I was not a diabetic before taking it . I did my research . I found out that Rosuvastatin can raise your blood sugars . My Dr Malachia Trout at the Fargo VA told me that she knew that the statin would raise my blood sugars . She said that she made a decision that was best for me . When I started having tingling in my toes and feet . I asked her if the statin could have caused the problems . She said no. But , she never once told me that the statin could take me from a prediabetic to a diabetic . I stopped taking rosuvastatin and my blood sugars went down . I now am taking Alphalipoic acid . It helps with the tingling and burning .
