Ok, that's news to me. I heard a lot of talk about CVD "event" benefits at the cost of other issues with ultimately no benefit to all-cause mortality and I myself did experience strong muscle pain from statins. This meta study certainly is quite solid in favor of statins. What I find crazy scary is that by my reading, statins help everybody and non-CVD patients even more than CVD.
When I was prescribed statins and immediately developed muscle pain I did search for others in the same situation. I found a platform where thousands had rated my product abysmal with horror stories of death and pain with an occasional 5-star rating. I know this is totally anecdotal but I e-mailed one of those 5-star raters and asked how it's going. He told me he gave the 5-stars after a week and stopped using the product after two months due to problems, too.
