I took Lipitor for awhile and had some very weird vision and cognitive issues that did go away after I stopped it.. I talked with a pharmacist about how to stop and risk of doing so, plus a lot of online searches before stopping.. It was a low dose 10 or 20 mg...
My cholesterol was at 350's and triglycerides were high also back then.. but no heart risk factors and I cleaned up my eating with healthier fats and a lot less junk food since then.. Haven't really checked cholesterol levels in years..so not sure where they are now..
My brothers all take other statins I think.. One says fun/good memories I recall from child hood, he doesn't remember...
Makes me wonder if statins are affecting his memory..
