I wonder: Do you take statins for cholesterol, as well?

You can have an allergic reaction to almost anything and experience shortness of breath at that time. But yes, once the allergen is out of your system the breathing problems go away. I initially thought I was having an allergic reaction and that is why I stopped taking the Lyrica. It was more than an allergic reaction since the lung problems are continuing four and a half months later.
No, I do not take statins. My cholesterol has always been very good so I've never had to take medicine for that.
