I have CMT and was on Tricor for a few months- my triglycerides were over 500. My symptoms and balance got so much worse I could barely walk even with a cane. It was really scary. I improved quite a bit after going off them. They only brought my numbers down into the 360s, where they have stayed. Not ideal, but I have no other markers and would much rather be able to stand up and walk without falling over. (at least most of the time!)
