[QUOTE="susieg, post: 168377, member: 31080"] [b]Simvastatin[/b] I have been prescriobed simvastatin by my practice nurse because my cholesterol reading was moderately high. I am also hypothyroid and diabetes T1 (although she is querying this and thinks I may be T2 as my BS is constantly low with insulin and having frequent hypo's at night) I have been hearing horror stories about statins and the possible side effects. I really don't want anymore problems, can anyone give me some advice here. Is it advisable to take statins as a preventativemeasure, as the nurse suggests, or not - as my head tells me??? :? [/QUOTE]
