On statin before, usually my side effects didn't begin til 3 or 4 months. Had severe muscle pain and stopped them. Then on welchol for the past 3 or 4 months and started with very frequent irregular heart beats, gas and not digesting food well. Dr. not concerned, but I has stopped for two weeks. Heart still not back to normal.

medication 3 weeks ago, and have had these problems every
one or two days. Unlike when I took most of the statin
antihyperlipidemics, the addition of Vitamin E and Co-Enzyme
Q10 don't seem to relieve the symptoms. Do I need to worry
about this too much? Thanks.
