Simvastatin

simvastatin (40mg) for high cholesterol

I've had really bad lower back pain for years. My normal gait was limping. I needed to sit down after walking for about 2 metres. The pain radiated throughout my whole leg. Cholesterol was still high, 8.5. I read online that this all might be because of these pills so I halved what I was taking and then started taking omega capsules and using butter and liquids with omega in them. The back pain has gone and my cholesterol has halved. The doctor has said I'm now allowed to just take 20 mg.
