I am very lucky that a low dose rosuvastatin both solved my myalgia and lowered LDL below the recommended 70 mg/dL level. I am one of those people who do not believe in the One-Weird-Trick theory of preventing heart disease. I use lots of beneficial tools to help, including lifestyle modifications. From the FWIW Department, an 'optimistic' attitude has been shown to reduce the risk of heart attack. And as a postscript, I have been able to conquer sleep issues after working on these for a long time.
