I could have killed someone!

So all this hype in group and with Links about how bad Statin Drugs are

and I have been passing in on to people I know who are on them and then

low and behold I am reading a link that some sent me to Doctor Mercola

and he even says that Lynn (one of my friends who has colestrail of 375

and blood pressure of 190/120 without taking her BP med. Here is a

quote, word for word from Mercola's site on Statin drugs:

" There are a small group of people with genetic enzyme defects that

have cholesterols levels above 325-350. These are about the only

individuals in my experience, who seem to benefit from statins "

Glad I read this before I talked her out of it. So my question to the

group, if study of 18,000 people showed that they enabled 54% people to

have less heart attacks and 20% less to die, does anyone in this group

know of anyone who has died because of taking them? I mostly only

read of muscle damage that seems to be a small price to pay for staying

alive???

~~~~~~~ I can't say he died because of taking them, but they sure

didn't help Tim Russert.
