 Statins - Crankcase
At my last "medication review" I was advised to start on statins. I elected not to at that point, only because I don't like taking things unless I really really have to and if there's ever going to be a side effect it's me that going to get it, in my experience. I expect I'll be gradually pressured more to take them as time goes by though.

The media is full of articles saying they are a good thing, and apparently just as many saying there not. If you dig about in the positive research they quote it often seems to be sponsored by the drug companies which clouds the issues for me.

So. Does anyone here take them, and what's your experience or thoughts? Have your legs fallen off?
