As you might know i posted a few weeks ago about having trouble taking statins.I was on them since i became a diabetic but my levels never came down but walking was so bad so last year i decided to have 6 months off with docs consent and my walking improved but at the last blood test it had gone up to 8 so they tried me on a new drug but i started having flu symptoms but docs wouldnt say it was the statin but as soon as i stopped taking it i was better .They have now put me on Bezalip and i dont get the side affects like the statins just have to wait for next bloods hope this helps anyone
