Hello I have studied your case, These symptoms are adverse effects of statins medication which doctor might have given to lower blood cholesterol levels. Continue your nutritional supplement. Take plenty of water, fluid intake will dilute toxins. Eat fresh fruit and juice and soup they have anti=oxidant. Physiotherapy with ultrasound and Tens will help you, Yes you can do exercises like swimming, riding stationary bicycle, but do not overexert yourself. Take potassium rich diet. Hot and cold fomentation to leg. You need to continue you medication for a couple of month to see effects. Add tab methylcobalamine 1500 once day or In methylcobalamine1500 mcg once week for 6 weeks. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health.
