Guest guest Posted October 15, 2010 Report Share Posted October 15, 2010 Pretty much what I was thinking myself Phil. Speaking of statins,.....I hope my lipids are still good with this blood draw. It has been a year, and I do NOT want to start on statins by any means. I am going to bring up the bone density Tuesday. He will probably order it. Thanks for confirming my thought process. > > I never had one asked my Dr. about it he felt it would be a good Idea but not now I am in a lot of pain from being on Statin Drugs my lower back,hips and upper legs hurt for low CoQ10 levels.
