[QUOTE="Croc, post: 881636, member: 166824"] Nosher8355 given the option I personally would dodge the simvastatin. The side effects for loads of people, me included, can be horrendous. I stopped taking them for a long time (now take Atorvastatin, no side effects) and although the worst of the pain went, my muscles have never recovered and the muscle tone has gone and left me feeling constantly bruised. I know not everyone gets the side effects but if you do, stop them and get them changed to an alternative as soon as you can. Simvastatin is always the first choice cos a pack only costs the Nhs about a quid. The alternatives are more expensive. [/QUOTE]
