I am having blood work too see how my numbers look after four months without statins. They’re going to have to be really awful to make me go back on that drug. Dietary changes aren’t as bad as they sound and you get used to them. I don’t eat baked goods anymore, no red meat, and I try and stay away from saturated fat and added sugars in all foods. I’ve lost over 30 pounds which I’m sure will help. Unfortunately, unlike you, I still suffer the numbness in legs and feet this many months after stopping. I can’t positively blame it on the statin, but I didn’t have it before I started them. I hope you are able to find a solution in one of the newer options that are non-statin like Repatha or Praluent. Good luck to you!
