I’m not against taking statins, I’m just questioning the dose. And it’s rather rude of you to say I “don’t know what I’m talking about”. I have long ago learned that you can’t just blindly trust doctors, but need to take charge of your own health. I do a lot of research, and a second opinion never hurts.

When I was having problems with statins, I researched about 20 studies and couldn't find one article that was positive about statins. The statins severely weakened my legs. I finally got the guts to tell my cardiologist that I didn't want to take the statins. His response, "You don't really have high cholesterol. *&^%$#! I've been off statins for 3 years, some of my leg strength has come back. My current Cholesterol is 186, HDL 60. I found another cardiologist.
