I thought the Statin Myopathy podcast was a good one as well, @deniseheart.

Hearing an updated perspective of statin-related pain, how non-statins reduce myalgia risk, and most definitely a newer approach of how treatment options are being creatively used ties a lot together to answer so many questions. There is definitely an art in addition to the science in treating cholesterol.

Was there a particular part of what you listened to that caught your attention?

@jlharsh the entire podcast held my attention. There is not a single oral statin that doesn't give me acute myalgia leg pain. Even the cholesterol absorption inhibitors like Ezetimibe causes the same pain. After listening to this insightful podcast, I have hope that new protocols will be developed for the many folks that suffer from oral statin intolerance and/or allergy.
