I stopped taking statins long before I developed neuropathy because the statins were creating problems with my liver. My cardiologist started me on a new medicine called Praluent. It is a self injectable drug. It does not go through your liver and it improved all my cholesterol numbers immediately and my liver enzymes were back to normal. I highly recommend this.

I find that so interesting.

Praluent can also raise liver enzymes. That is a documented side effect. Luckily it worked out great for you.
