Aged 39, been on SIMVASTATIN 40mg for 6 days after spending 12 months trying to reduce my cholesterol through diet and seeing it rise to 8. Have been experiencing discomfort and flatulence since 12 hours after taking the first tablet. Have put it down to getting used to the drug, but found this website and wondered... Also been taking Ramipril for BP for a year. I am fit & exercise regularly (I'm used to muscles randomly aching)and although I drink virtually every day I don't smoke. Should I just wait and see?
