Has anyone experienced poor circulation, neuropathy pains in legs from taking Statins. I recently had neuropathy pains after my back went out recently. It was controlled by my doctor Pregasafe & Neurobine Forte & physiotherapy. But am now being placed on Statins to control my Cholesterol at 238. However, I am concerned it will aggravate and make the leg pains return. I have trip to make in 3 months with lots of walking, so I am very concerned.

When I started statins (many years ago) I did develop leg pain. I talked with my doctor who switched me to a different statin and the pain went away. See if you can start with a low dose. I hope you don't get the leg pain and able to enjoy your trip.
