I have been on statins for almost 20 years. Lipitor.

I’ve experienced no side-effects.

My lipid profile looks like the profile of an 18 year-old marathon runner.

It seems that with each passing year statins are found to be beneficial in additional ways.

The benefits of statins far outweigh the negatives.

If your doctor recommends a statin, do it.

I wouldn’t go back to the headaches and lethargy even if I thought the statins were doing me some good.
