I've been suffering from the side-effects from the Statin drug, Lipitor for high cholestrol. I was one of the lucky ones that had SEVERE pain, weakness, damaged nerves, stabbing pains and on and on..................... Anyway it is a lot like fibromyalgia. Iread your posts and decided to try the Protein plan. I had gained 30 pounds from hurting and not doing much exercise or anything for 71/2 years.
I can not say how much better I feel, at least I can now move, get up from my chair, exercise. Between this plan and exercising I feel so much better. I've been off Statins for 8 months now, yes I still have the damage from Statins, but I feel about 50% better.
Beware of Statin drugs, read the warnings about them, check out the damage some people, like me have gotten from Statin drugs, I took Mevacor, Zocor and Lipitor. My doctor nor I new what was happening to me for 7 long years.
