Dr Xuemei Huang did a preliminary study in 2006 on associatiion of statins and PD. I have not seen any further studies by her since she moved to Hershey, PA. I met her once, a delightful, brilliant woman.

Many years ago, I read a little tid bit on PWP having a low cholesterol count but later could find no mention of it. When I heard about simvistatin and how it is suppose to help for PD, being unaware of the debate, I just asumed that most PWP would not qualify for the drug and tossed that idea on the big heaping pile of "no value", little did I know about the stain and PD link......... ...urgh...I have much to learn. Thank You Olsen for educating me.
