A member asked:

Why do my legs ache in the evening and mornings my cholestral medicine has been changed three times and the ache is still there

A doctor has provided 1 answer

May be no from meds: May be it is not related to your cholesterol meds and there may be another cause for it you need a comrehensive exam and blood test to find the cause meanwhile ask your doctor if it is ok to stop the statins he/she has prescrbed to see if there is any relationship with statins and your leg pains.
