Question Need advice about statins and osteoporosis meds

I have been diagnosed with MG for a month. My PCP wants to put me on a statin (not sure which one) and actonel for osteoporosis. He says I have significant osteopenia and high cholesterol. My NM doc has deferred this to him. I am currently tapering off prednisone and taking 30 - 60 Mg of mestinon 4x a day.

I have put my PCP off until my pred taper is done and I plan to start researching about statin use and MG. Anyone have any experience with either of these classes of drugs?

I am doing so much better and am concerned about an exacerbation of my MG symptoms
Thanks

Sandy
