But it is that Crestor that is in the Trilipix that is worrisome.

That drug depletes CoQ-10 and he should be supplementing at least 300mg a day of that of a quality enhanced absorption type.
Also read my thread in the subforum about statins.

If he refuses to learn about it... then he should try adding acetyl carnitine to his CoQ-10 and hope for the best.

That statin in the Trilipix is highly problematic for someone already with neuropathy.

Hi Mrs. D. Just wanted to update you on my friend from the Neuropathy PN Group. He has gone for a blood test and among what they are testing for is B-12 and Vitamin D.

So we shall find out when we find out!!!

thanks much

Melody
