Default OT Statins

I took 20mg zocor for a while. After almost a year I was feeling the
effects when using the muscles. I took myself off the statin. I was
plaed on 10mg Zetia and 10 mg zocor. This low dosage has worked so
far(2yrs) I also take 2 omega fish oil.
I tried 4 fish oil but cholestra went up so I backed off to 2
capsules(1000mg ea.)
This combo seems to be ok. The nurse told me that usually if someone
gets side effects of muscle ache it's when their statin dosage is
increased. BJ
