Simvastatin

12/2/2015 | | 57moderated by Henry
Simvastatin (40mg) for high cholesterol

3 weeks ago I was admitted to coronary care following a mild heart attack. At that point I was taking Crestor and I wasn't to happy with it. Then I was prescribed simvastatine. After that, 2 weeks ago, I was checked for hernia and canal stenosis in my back (the most difficult surgery) on the assumption that this was the cause for my back pain, muscle cramps in my legs, instability and not being able to stand on one spot. It couldn't be further from the truth. Last weekend with more practising and trying to walk, I got palpitations, muscle cramps in my legs which made it really difficult for me to walk. I had to sit down as fast as I could manage. Yesterday I didn't take my simvastatine and today I don't have any of these symptoms. So the conclusion?
