Hi Teddi...these are a few of the links I've found so

far...something to get you started.

Gee, I noticed lots of references to taking coumadin

with the statins and also hypothyroidism (in Aug. they

lowered my dose of synthyroid twice...) So in total,

who knows what the heck is cooking!!! , you

might be interested in one or two of these links, too!

The links say the myositis is rare, but happens...and

a thing called rhabdomyolysis. Don't have an

understanding of that at all.
