Default statins/cardiomyopathy???

mrs d tried to start new thread, site wouldnt let me....so...any known relationship between statins and cardiomyopathy? dont know if it is hypertrophic or dialated....my sister was just dx and also has LBBB, and only a 30% EJ fraction....asked doc about activity restrictions, and was told no, which surprises me......no known heart attack, no hptn and seemed to tolerate the statin.....our mother had a "threatened/aborted heart attack and did have hypertension....didnt tolerate statins until i started her on Co Q10,
i am concerned .....any info you could provide would be appreciated.... tia
