No one can make you take a medication you don't want to, rainbow. Perhaps you could think of this as an information-gathering stage, before you decide what you would like to do? And you could do your own reading as well, about your symptoms. You are the one in charge.
Does the weakness feel like specific muscle weakness or does it feel like you might have to lay down or you will pass out? I used to have this second, whole-body weakness at times and it turned out I was hypothyroid, but the normal thyroid tests did not show this, I needed the whole panel of thyroid measures in order for us to see that.
If you take a statin drug you may also need to supplement with coQ10 to replace what the drug blocks, in order to not have muscle weakness. These are just my thoughts -- worth only what you paid for them! -- but I'm sure there is a lot to consider and no one should pressure you into any hurried decisions.
