I can sympathize, as I have been on a Statin roller coaster myself! I started with a low dose of Atorvastatin, increased to a higher dose and came down with debilitating joint and muscle pain. Took a break from that and my symptoms cleared up within a few days. Later on tried a low dose of Rosuvastatin, which seemed to be tolerated, increased dosage and it felt like I was having some adverse effects. Decreased to lower dose and seemed ok. In an effort to reduce my cholesterol further, I started Praluent, in conjunction with low dose Rosuvastatin, which initially seemed ok, but as time went on, I started to feel like symptoms were coming on, so my cardiologist had me stop the Rosuvastatin and stay on the Praluent, which so far seems ok. Now I have a ruptured achilles that I am dealing with, so I have other aches and pains to worry about. Maybe my cholesterol lowering regime had some impact on that, but my cardiologist doesn't thnk so. Good luck with your issues!
