[QUOTE="mariavontrapp, post: 2004065, member: 188149"] I've never taken statins, but I do have weakness in my legs when I low carb. I eat enough protein and take supplements but nothing seems to help. If everything is stable regarding blood glucose and weight, you might be able to introduce a little carb into your diet but you would have to be very careful with it. I think a number of people do experience muscle weakness on low carb, but the LCHF experts that I have watched tend to skip over it and concentrate on the success stories and sporty types. I would recommend that you get checked for high ferritin (iron) levels. Symptoms of haemochromatosis include fatigue, pain, high cholesterol, diabetes. Why not Google it just in case the profile fits. [/QUOTE]
