My husband had heart surgery 2yrs ago atthe age of 51. He was put on Lipitor and 2 yrs later he has had muscle aches and stopped immediately. It has been two weeks and he still has some aches in his neck and shoulders especially but does not want permanent damage by taking a statin drug again to lower cholesterol...so now need to find a way to keep cholesterol down..very active and eats well and exercises and low weight..but now has high cholesterol that he is off lipitor and niacin.
