The cardio doc's nurse called today and said he wants him on Niacin. Start with 1 a day and work up to 4 a day. Chuck was reading about niacin and it says if you take a statin which he is, and take niacin, it can destroy the skeletal muscle. Any one on both??

Guest guest Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 And I meant his HDL was helped. Steve also eats a cracker with his niacin and he says he thinks it helps with the flushing. This article didn't mention anything about muscles. Hugs and Love, Jackie May the peace of God be with you...the love of Jesus enfold you...and the Spirit of Christ fill you.
