[QUOTE="Guzzler, post: 1882493, member: 408573"] You may or may not have heard of Etoricoxib which was also considered a safe drug and was widely prescribed (though not as widely as statins) until it wasn't. Only in real life was it it found to raise the risk of stroke to unacceptable levels. Did Etoricoxib work? It worked for me for six/seven years, was it worth the risk? No. There are fundamental questions that remain concerning statin use that I would want answered fully and honestly before reconsidering my decision not to take them. May I ask, just out of interest, do you work with data (analyst?) or do you work on the shop floor so to speak? [/QUOTE]
