Hi. Good choice I think. Statins have bad side effects.
I’m a chronic pain patient, we lost most support and pain meds in 2016 so had to turn to natural and homeopathic choices.
Natural is herbs n vitamins/ minerals/ amino acids, etc. to control the issue. I’ve expanded to include Chinese medical herbs/ plants and other more ethnic items. All these things can be found on herbal or naturopathic sites. You might consider a naturopath Dr or DO who combines the two disciplines to help us stay healthy .
Homeopathic-is one or a combination of actual homeopathic remedies ( similar to using allergy shots to reduce the reaction). Items are plant or mineral based and there’s an actual certification and dilution procedure in place. I’m just learning this system. It’s not too complex to learn on general terms. To be well aquatinted, reading up on a website or book over a couple weeks in small chunks of time is fine. Over the course of various infections and using the internet holistic sites you can figure things out well.
This is also how I educated myself on my neuropathy symptoms. I take lots of supplements but I am finally starting to feel stronger.
Good Luck, sorry about the volumes I wrote but I’m sure it will help you too🙂
