[QUOTE="seadragon, post: 999440, member: 195124"] The actual forum rule is this. • [B]REMEMBER[/B]: we do not give medical advice. If you give advice then it is through your own experience or a link to a reputable site external to the forum. So it is perfectly acceptable to advise of our own experiences with medications and post links to info. If it so happens that most people's experiences of statins are not good then there is probably a good reason for it. I believe it is directly relevant to know how a particular medication has affected others with similar problems to one's own. Certainly for me it was very useful when first offered statins, to be able to read the stories of people on here and the links to information they posted as it enabled me to make an informed decision to never take them and I am grateful to all those who posted their stories and info.
