Hi Everyone!

I have been on and off statins for many years.

After being off statins for a period of time, I began taking "Pravastatin" 40 mg per day, upon which I noticed a flair-up in my small fiber neuropathy symptoms eleven days later.

I do not know if there is a connection, but given the recent threads on statins and neuropathy, I was curious if someone in the forum with expert knowledge on statins could let me know how "Pravastatin" specifically ranks in terms of potentially causing nerve damage?

Mrs. D?

Many thanks!

David
