Brief Answer: statins are known for there side effects Detailed Answer: Hello, I have studied your case. lescol xl 80 contents statins which are known for there side effects of muscle pain ,so you can hold these medication for some days and see for the change of pain. Your thyroid profile is normal, haemoglobin is good ,neutrophils are low and lymphocytes are high indicating low immunity with possibility of underlying infection.ESR and CRP test will help us more to see for any chronic infection.cholestrol are near normal. This may not be stomach related, but if ESR and CRP are raised then cause of infection need to be searched which may be originating from stomach. Hope this answers your query.
