I was diagnosed with a PN in December. It is affecting my back primarily due to an injury there, I also have tingling in my legs and arms, and sometimes pain radiating. I have dizziness and instability. After doing a little research of my own, I have come to the conclusion that the statins I’ve been taking for the last 30 years are responsible. I quit taking them on March 23, doctors and pharmacists will not admit that statins are the cause. Over 20 million people have this illness and no one can come up with a cause? One thing my doctor did say is “this has been coming on for a long
time.“,sorry but that doesn’t help me feel any better. He’s right, I’ve spent the last eight years trying to get a diagnosis and all they could do is send me to somebody else or recommend more physical therapy, which wasn’t working. I’m exasperated. No one is willing to take on Big Pharma to get to the bottom of this. People are suffering.
