Heart Diseases

The Dr told me if the muscle pain is bareable to keep taking the current statin Lescol . I don't feel comfortable taking any statin when it's states muscle pain is serious problem. What do others think ?

I have a heart murmur, and I'm tired of everyone saying that I have 'heart problems'. Yeah, problems-- as in plural! Never mind that, a heart murmur isn't even that big of a deal. Millions of people have them and don't even realize it.
If something says "don't do this if you have heart problems", does a heart murmur qualify? I don't think so, but I'm not an expert.
Besides my little 'problem', I am a perfectly normal, healthy 17 year boy. I don't want to be labelled as having 'heart problems' this early in my life. At least wait until I'm old.
So, what's your take on this? Are they overdramatic-- or am I just naive?
Thanks!

small?? My sister's mother in law just had a heart cath and they basically told her to go home and wait for the big one because there isnt anything they can do. they said her vessels are too small for a bypass or another stint placement. btw, she had a stint placed about 2 months ago that already closed up because once again they say the vessels are too small. She is only 60. it just seems they arent coming up with any answers. Is there really nothing left but to wait to have a huge heart attack and die???

My Triglycerides are really high. My good Cholestrol is ok, and the bad Cholestrol is only slightly elevated.

I can't find anyone whohas had this procedure, so I don't know if what I feel is normal. The DR says 'wait and see" It's soooo frustrating!!

I finally went to the doc today, they did and EKG and said it was perfect, and they did an Xray to check for muscular strain....or I think that's why....

Is it possible to have a muscle pulled in the shoulder/chest area, that the pain mimicks heart trouble....??? I thought for sure it was my heart and feel like a hypochodriac for telling my doc something was wrong in my heart area....(although, she does rock....I still feel like a doofus)

I also take meds.for Cholesteol, Acid Reflux, Arthritus, and for depression. My appitite is almost nill. I can't walk too far before the pain is too overwelming in my hips. I get tired very fast and I want to sleep. My husband and daughter can attest to my lack of appitite. Could accupunture help? Can I take anything to counter my lack of energy without jeperdising my blod pressure condition?
