Re: Hypo's and long term brain damage
As soon as a read (in a Balance letter) that simvastatin could cause muscle pain, I stopped it & within a week the muscle pain had gone. I then reported to my Dr, who agreed it was a common side effect.
I do add oat bran & Flora pro-active to other mixes (but not spread on the bread I don't eat.) My chol was 7.6 at diagnosis 10 years ago, & is running below 5 without medication.
