I had heard that too, MrsD. AT first they thought that statins were good for MS, then the **** sx hit the fan and they began studying them and found that they were not at all good for MS.
Wiz, I control my cholesterol with Benechol Margerine (about a tbsp or 2 per day). It tastes just like butter and has cholestero lowering thingys in it.
My PCP says it's working, so I'm keeping it up. There are a bunch of those chol reducing things out there now....you may not have to take Zocor, you may be able to do it with you diet?
