Active 85 Year Old Female (walks Allot, Rides Exercise Bike)
active 85 year old female (walks allot, rides exercise bike)
Had AVR in 2013 with TAVI, stent, and angioplasty. Been taking Lipitor for 2 years.
Lately, experiencing unexplained fatigue and muscle aching. I believe it is the Lipitor.
Is 2 years enough statin therapy to stabalize plaques? Is there any benefit for me to remain on statin therapy at my age? I recently stopped taking it, and I am already feeling better (more energy).
