Reversal of Statin-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy

I had lower back and buttocks pain. Pain specialist ran an EMG. Test results indicated neuropathy. This was July 2024. At that point I had no numbness, buzzing, or pain in my legs.It was around that time I was put on statins. Around December I noticed some odd feeling in my feet. A month later there was some in my arms. In early 2025 pain showed up in my feet and back of legs.
So, was it the statins? Who knows?

I have neuropathy in my feet. I am on Losartan. Now I'm very concerned. My Dr. put me on it about the same time I started feeling pain in my feet. I am not wondering about the neuropathy being a side effect? I'm wondering if there are any studies on this?
@heisenberg34 High probability.
