tmenss,

Why are you wanting to stop taking a statin? Do you have negative side effects?

Not really, during my recovery and regenerative phase. Long story short. I had an extensive list of support medications in addition to immunosuppressives for my recovery and regeneration post-heart and kidney transplant. I've struggled with many ups and downs through the initial 14 months post, 4 months ago, I made gains with PRIMARILY plant-based nutrient choices and continued to refine while continuing my medication and food safety and transplant team directions. During the last four months I concentrated on my exercise (mostly walking and indoor cycling) and hydration for blood volume and kidney. At 17 months, my health appears very solid. I think I have fair case for discontinuing my statin. We shall see during my 2nd annual in 3 months!
