stressedmesseddepressed: hi.. I am on Rosuvastatin 10mg and have pain in thigh, cause really, not determined, had an MRI with DDD , spine surgery consult was not helpful. I have seen few cardiologists, so far. There was no
referral to Co Q 10. I am trying to find out if this is available. Thanks for this info. I was just advised to get a lab. test, CPK done and not of any problem, it seems. It is small dose, may be. But, I will enquire further.

FYI - "In a study published this week in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC), researchers based in Denmark measured CoQ10 levels in individuals taking simvastatin (a commonly-prescribed statin), and compared them with individuals not taking statins [1]. The levels in those taking the statin were significantly lower."

But, of course, consult first with your Doctor for possible negative interactions, etc.

I went through a MRI also but no conclusions why I had burny thigh pain I read the literature it said about Pain in thighs ,the literature the pharmacy gives you in your prescription will tell you it can cause thigh pain I'm not taking it anymore .You can buy CQ10 at drug store.

Yes it does for those that cholesterol is hereditary but it also will destroy muscle,s there,s a name for by I can't remember if so it's a trade of.

Are you saying co-enzyme Q 10 is harmful? No, right? Every cell uses it! Our bodies naturally make it!

No,no CoQ10 is needed by the body statins can on some people do damage to the muscles
