@mddaviscares25, Hi, and Welcome to Mayo Connect! I am sorry to hear about the joint pain, but happy to hear that you will be celebrating your 1st heart transplant anniversary! My advice is to do something special to honor that day.
I'm beginning to experience some undesired joint pain which has been diagnosed as age related osteoarthritis. Yep! It is the time of my life to be visited by the age related things.
I see that you are seeing rheumatologist fot the joint pain and also stopping the statin for a month. I hope that helps you because I have heard that it has helped others With/without transplant.
Have you started to get some physical activity or exercise? Are you able?

I do exercise by walking or riding my recumbent bicycle. I should be starting cardiac rehabilitation soon. Thanks so asking.
