My husband has been taking 40mg Simvastatin for almost a year. Since taking the statins he has had numerous side effects one of which is stomach cramps with bouts of diarrhea. His muscles have also been wasting away and he has had on and off chest pains which recently landed him in hospital which resulted in an unnecessary angiogram which was a traumatic experience.

I'm 56 and just started Simvastatin. I have started having chest pain every night now. I never had this before! What is up with this>? Anyone else develop chest pain from it? I'm going to stop taking it because it doesn't feel right to get chest pain from a pill!
