Episode 535: Wouldn’t Bet On it: What is the risk of muscle symptoms on statins?

In episode 535, Mike and James work through all the evidence and come up with the definitive (in our minds) answer as to whether or not statins cause muscle symptoms. They likely do in 1% of people, but if you have muscle symptoms when you are on a statin it is very unlikely it is because of the statin.
