Much the same with me!

Doc said 'how do you describe how you felt?'

'Like driving a car with the brakes seized on' I said. She didn't
understand me, I think.


They ruined my life until I realised and then stopped taking them.

The previous ones made me weak and useless and I kept getting muscle
aches.


I couldn't walk far before cramp and pain kicked in.

Frankly statins looked likely to shorten my life or make it not worth

I felt very old, useless and very depressed quite quickly after starting
Simvastatin but it took a while for the penny to drop.


I've been taking simvastation for years. Apart from some rather lurid dreams
in the first couple of weeks, I've not noticed a thing. Other than my cholesterol
coming down.
