Statin discontinued due to neuropathy. What are some alternatives?

Have been off the statins for about 3 months. Still numbness in feet and lower legs.. no better but no worse. Would be interested to see if the apple cider vinegar is helpful with cholesterol!
Mine isn’t real high but I did have a partially blocked artery many years ago and have been on high dosage statin for past twenty years. Numbness slowly developing starting with the Sock under toes feeling. Not totally numb.. kind of like John describes his.

MaryMaurer, you may think I am crazy, but I too take Lipitor in the, 40mg strength for 40 years.
When my toes started burning and tingling, I was very uncomfortable. I kept complaining and someone suggestion I take CBD pills. I decided I would try CBD cream above, 500 mg strength. To my amazement it took about 3 days but my tingling and burning lessened. I have been using CBD lot/ion over 900 mg for 3? Years now, and some days no neuropathy and ot’her days a little. It’s worth a try as everyone I have told about say it has,helped them.
