I’d been taking 20 mg. of Rosuvastatin a day for about a year before being diagnosed with neuropathy and I haven’t noticed any ill effects since I started taking gabapentin.

Unfortunately there does seem to be a clear cut association between statins and neuropathy. The medical community continues to push statins as hard as they can, and if you raise the subject of neuropathy they will form a cross with there fingers. And run backwards.
