[QUOTE="Jo_the_boat, post: 1614430, member: 436209"] Indeed. From my point of view, as I've written, I have been told to take Statins by a vascular surgeon for a particular problem. What amazes me is that two medics in the same discipline have such diametrically opposed views. Incidentally, this is the first time I've seen someone from the same field expressing these views. The point being that my specialist is vehemently sticking to the Statin route and he, like other HCPs, disappeared into the depths of the hospital without offering any real explanation. I am not thick (very) and deserve proper reasoning. OK, appointment times are strictly limited but at least I could be directed to online or print media where I can learn the balanced facts - and not just diluted national guidelines. I want to make the best choice for me - I'm sure we all do - but this conflict is difficult when there is so much at stake for all of us. [/QUOTE]
