[QUOTE="LittleGreyCat, post: 2130678, member: 6467"] If the "cholesterol tablets" are statins then they are a prime candidate for muscle pains. What is the name of the tablet, what is the strength, and how long have you been taking it? Forxiga works by stopping your kidneys reabsorbing sugar which has been filtered out from your blood so that you flush it out in your urine. This may mean you find yourself peeing more, which in turn means you may have to drink more fluids and perhaps consider taking in more salts if you end up peeing those out as well. However this is just a guess, not a medical opinion! So I would suspect the statins but also think about what might have changed since you started taking the Forxiga. It could also be something else entirely unrelated to the tablets, of course. [/QUOTE]
