[QUOTE="Squire Fulwood, post: 547834, member: 44622"] I never used the Internet to research anything. I took the prescribed medicine without question in every case because I trusted the medical profession's knowledge and skill. My attitude was that if they made a mistake I would go back to them and they would put it right since they made the mistake. I noted that each time I was prescribed a statin after the first one caused trouble my nurse would reassure me by saying, "No-one has ever had any trouble with this one". I now doubt if she was being entirely truthful. In retrospect this seems a little more like a divide and conquer ploy. Not comparing notes with others at that time left me open to this. It is no longer the case thanks to the Internet and this forum. [/QUOTE]
