Managing statin muscle pain

61 yo male physician initiated first ever statin with chol 221, Hdl 53, coronary calcium 1 left circ., 31 LAD and no symptoms with regular exercise history. Developed severe tendonopathy/myopathy rather quickly at 11 months. Now suffering 6-7 weeks after d/c therapy from persistent symptoms. More details of course, but where would this physician find contemporary management considerations?

I like it

Presumably some very smart clinicians and statisticians have waded through an Impossibly large set of literature data to help me sit with my patient and give him/her the best possible advice...

Aspirin Guide

Thank you for the aspirin guide. It does not calculate risk scores or make recommendations for patients that have chronic high RBCs, hemoglobin, and/or platelets; former smokers (which smoking contributes to atherosclerosis); or polycythemia vera. All of which can lead to clot formation, heart attack and/or stroke, especially in a young patient.
