My Triglycerides were over 500. Doctor panicked and put me on Tricor. This was right around the time that I was being diagnosed with hereditary neuropathy. My condition immediately kicked into high gear and my balance became so bad I could barely stand up, let alone walk. Pain levels went through the roof as well. My neurologist barely hinted that I might want to go off that drug. Later I find that for CMT in particular statins and Tricor are poison.
Moderate dieting, walking when I am able, and fish oil seem to have brought the numbers down below 300. I do not really care that much. The connection between high numbers and heart disease is not as dramatic as the loss of quality of life I experienced on the drug, which never knocked more than 100 points off my numbers anyway.
You sound committed to the meds. I would do more research. Good luck.
