CoQ10
When I started this thread back in June, joint pain was pretty bad. It was painful as hell to simply lift my leg high enough to get on the bike. Since then I changed my diet to about 98% vegetarian, cut my rosuvastatin dosage in half (with the "OK" from my cardio), started taking 300 mg COQ10 per day, and lost 15 pounds. My cholesterol numbers are great AND I'm totally off my blood pressure medication. Joint pain is totally gone. I don't know if it's because of the lowered statin dosage, or the COQ10, or a combination of the two... but I feel great again!
