[QUOTE="zand, post: 1138753, member: 85197"] Yes sorry, you're right. I know that statins have been shown to be of no clinical benefit at all to women, whilst they do benefit a small percentage of men. Women also need higher cholesterol in later life as it protects them. So there are differences in the sexes in cholesterol in that respect, but I made a leap to get to the conclusion I made earlier. On a personal level that's what I've always done, and when I chat on the forum it's me personally saying it, that's why I rarely put up links. I will be more careful in future because what applies to me may not work for anyone else because I don't research anything, I just talk about what I have done and what I think. I don't take anything a doctor says to me as gospel truth so I wouldn't expect anyone to believe what I am saying without checking it out for themselves first. Like you said earlier we're just online weirdos. :) [/QUOTE]
