Do you take statins? Do you know why?

[QUOTE="CheeseSeaker, post: 2702913, member: 531814"] Statins is a hot topic on t'internet. For me they reduce my cholesterol to a healthy level, where restricting fats in my diet (fairly healthy one, but not just surviving on lentils and Brussel sprouts) made very little difference (as predicted by my GP of the time) Have had issues with Simvastatin and cramps, but nothing since being switched to Atorvastatin (it works well for me with no side effects) Do they do anything? Yes - reduce my cholesterols In the long run will it make any difference? Who knows, but worth hedging my bets (for me at least) [/QUOTE]
