@dinardoefd He works for you remember that.! I would fire him and go to another cardiologist. I had to do that. I did not want to be on statins because of the memory issues they cause. My doctor told me that’s not true even though I had read many articles. My mother has Alzheimer’s so it’s a real concern. She also was on statins for years. Well I was at a healthcare conference and a research pharmacist was speaking. I went up to him afterwards and asked do statins cause memory loss and he said, “absolutely!” I have a 0 calcium score. I am now with a female cardiologist who is willing to listen and we come up with different solutions together other than statins.

Hi @debirene. I love hearing you comment that you and your current cardiologist come up with different solutions together. Care plans tailored to the individuals are the best!

I share your concerns about Alzheimer’s, and really dementia in general. The older I get and the more I recognize in my family….well, the more serious I all decisions seems to become.

Do you take Repatha, and if so how are you doing? What solutions have you and your cardiologist discussed, and what is next for you?
