I was very briefly on a statin in 2012. At the time I already had what in hindsight appears to be very mild muscle issues. I was already starting to take charge of nutrition/food issues at the time and my cholesterol has been improving every quarterly test for almost 2 years.

Acetyl carnitine- gotcha, heading to the store later for some. What sort of time frame is reasonable to expect some relief?

Further inspection of intake is 800 mcg of Folic acid. Would this be what I want to take in methyl folate or is that entirely something else?

I just reviewed the blood tests that were ordered two months ago. I didn't see anything that looked like CPK in name or per short internet investigation. I will bring it up at my next appointment in August.

Thank you for the insight,

Jon
