HI
Thank for asking to HCM
See the drug you are taking may have such side effect, it is mainly use to lower the cholesterol level, how much this molecule is necessary for you, if your cholesterol level is within normal range or marginally elevated and can be controlled with diet alone, better to go for lipid profile test, even if it is needed then have single molecule instead of combination,,single Atorvastatin would give good result try it, single molecule minimize the risk of side effects, good luck
I find this answer helpful
