I had a C-Reactive Protein High Sensitivity test done and it came back a 4.9 which puts me as high risk for cariovascular disease. My doctor reccommended that I take crestor, change my diet, and exercise. I have read that the statin drugs can cause liver damage and pain in muscles and joints and still may not do the job. I wanted to know if I change my diet and exercise if this could possibly alter my protein levels in my blood and make the inflammation in my veins and arteries go away or if there is any type of organic vitamin supplements that I could take that might help as well? I am really concerned about the liver damage factor from statin drugs. I have heard alot of bad reports.
