@valeriems I have been statin free from about 2 years now, and very seldom have pain. It is like I’m living again. The pain was debilitating and my cardiologist finally saw how it affected my quality of life. He declared me statin intolerant. My cholesterol was down to 198. Six months later, just with dietary tweaks and a supplement called Durable Heart, it had gone up just a bit. 211. I see him in December for my annual check up. Hopeful my numbers haven’t gone up but I won’t take statins again.
