My mind is fucked. I read this before I posted and I know I've taken Niacin in the past, but it didn't click in until I started reading the other replies.
I had the EXACT same reaction to it. Aspirin calmed it for a week or so, but then it got so bad I just stopped taking it.
That was 2 years ago. I'm on Lovastatin now, even though I'm down to 188 as of my last blood work.
