Kathie- I did have my thyroid and thyroid antibodies checked and was told everything was fine.

Celeste-I am worried I will have the same reaction you described. I has always reacted strangely to medication. I plan to try herbal alternatives

4-eyes-I have read some of the studies too. Scary stuff.

Fortunatos-My PCP stressed that statins MAY cause problems in the neuromuscular junction. I got the impression that he thinks everyone should be on statins. I plan to do my homework before I start anything

Mike-I am leaning toward that position too

Thanks everyone
Sandy
