See your mental health specialist about Statins. I’m not a doctor, but my Psychiatrist took me off all Statins. At least explore options for this medication. Yes, I have mild cognitive impairment. I’m 80.

hey...thanx for that.
I am taking all those meds except Asprin - see below why I don't take it anymore.
Maybe now I should start again.

The fixed-dose combination (FDC) therapies were examined both with and without aspirin...
They didn't say what the results were without aspirin.

Garlic, mushrooms, turmeric and lots of onions works better than this regime, and it costs less.

I take 81mg aspirin and 2 blood pressure meds (Beta blocker and an angiotensin receptor blocker)

There is no way on earth you could convince me to take ANY statin.

My cholesterol is 175....HDL 50, LDL 100, TG 110 so no freakin need for the nasty little buggers anyway.

Fascist Fauci should be commenting any time that 20 cents of pills a day can’t possibly save lives.

Just recently had total cholesterol of 264 and HDL of 58. Doctor wants to start me on a statin. I am 74 and wonder about all the bad things I hear about statins and if at my age does it matter?

I also take blood pressure meds.

How long does elevated cholesterol take to block arteries?

How much is diet the problem because I think I eat healthy???
