Studies have exhibited that statin use had induced, diabetes mellitus, cancer, early premature cataracts, hearing loss, suicidal ideation, peripheral neuropathy, depression, benign intention tremors and Parkinson´s disease, pulmonary interstitial pneumonitis and dysfunctional breathing , interstitial cystitis and bladder wall instability, herpes zoster, impotency, and cognitive impairments. Moreover, clumsiness, attention and psychomotor speed were alarming in young statin users. In some of these studies the side effects disappeared with discontinuation of the statins and worsened with re-challenge. All such major adverse clinical effects were due to lowering the cholesterol in otherwise normal subjects.
I don't think not having a control group on placebo that makes the studies invalid.I don't see any mention of statin problems versus a placebo control group. I know my mother had terrible muscle problems on starting statins but the other problems listed could be just random
Odd that the symptoms often go away when the statin is stopped and re-appear when the statin is re-started. Probably just random, eh?The list of medical issues looks (mainly) like a list of microvascular diseases. Without comparing with a placebo control group it would be easy to blame statins rather than glycated haemoglobin.
If the focus group on statins had diabetics in it you are bound to see these issues.
