[QUOTE="WackyJacky64, post: 1416447, member: 212511"] Please think carefully with statins . My dad was on them for 16 years and couldn't move his left side arm leg and eventually started falling over and having hallucinations bad nightmares kicking out in his sleep . Before Christmas he had low blood pressure and ended up in hospital , they took various medications off him including the statin , within 2 weeks his left side was functional again and his nightmares stopped. He no longer has whole body pain and he is improving daily . Just seems that when he stopped the statins his symptoms were less . Its up to and of course your GP will try to convince you that statins are the greatest thing and do not cause any problems , but thedoctor at the hospital took him off statin for a reason . [/QUOTE]
