I don't live with MG but a while ago I had a look at what the Cochrane Collaboration thinks about statins. Cochrane is a not-for-profit group which critically examines clinical trials to see how convincing the evidence is for a very wide of medical procedures.

I was surprised to learn just how weak the evidence is for statins reducing cardiovascular disease risk.

My commentary on this is here Statins.
