Statins And Muscle Damage Posted: 08-08-07 04:53am
Hi,
My mother was diagnosed diabetic 4 years
ago and at the same time was prescribed
simvastatin to lower cholesterol. She
always suffered tiredness and muscle ache
since. She was taken off the statins and
then put back on them. Recently the Dr has
said she has dangerously high levels of
CPK(causes muslce damage and kidney
failure) is there anything she can do to
reverse the damage that may have been
caused and also os there an alternative to
statins to reduce cholesterol?
