medication and golf

[williamalex1]

Over the last 6 months i've been taking statin tablets for border line high cholesterol levels, also beta blockers to slow my heart rate.
My golf has been getting worse over the same period, my muscles ache and my back is stiffer than its ever been.

I've just read the side effects of both my medications , and yes, all the side effects i have are mentioned on the leaflets , in fact i should not even be driving my car, if these effects are happening . So its back to the doc asap.

Has anyone else had anything similar.???

My dad was on statin last year and he felt awful on it sore legs etc. He aswell figured that out for himself after the doctor papped him off with old age excuses

Had a diabetic review today and mentioned I get tired on last few holes. Was told my medication might be having an effect and was told to think about only taking one tablet on golfing days. Will try it Saturday and see
