It was my stem cell transplant doctor who mentioned decreasing statins in passing when sh was reviewing my meds. We had more important issues to focus on during the appointment and I didn’t ask her any follow up questions. She is always focused on decreasing my meds when I don’t have any signs of GVHD. I will have my yearly appointment with my family doctor in the beginning of the year and will discuss statins with him.
I don’t remember what my cholesterol numbers were last time it was checked. My usual blood work panel for hematology doesn’t include cholesterol levels.
