From everything I have read and learned about statins they're were created for pure profit not for the consumers best interest. I believe they are a huge contributor to Alzheimer's disease and a lot of other diseases that have been created by profiteering politicians and big pharma.

]]> Sat, 13 Apr 2019 06:58:38 UTC 22983839 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/22982594?utm_medium=rss I have been on Statins since 2015. I’ve had muscle problems in my legs, arms and other skeletal muscle areas. I get off them when it gets so bad that I can hardly walk. Then I’ll get back in them in a month or so. I have genetic heart issues and rely on them to help my heart issue of high cholesterol.

My health declined afterwards. Aches, pains, lack of energy, depression worsened, foggy brain - all things that were being attributed to my age. I stopped all medications, started a plant based diet, and within 3 months I feel 20 years younger. Started exercise classes, walking twice a day, far more energy, less depressed, mind is clear. And, my cholesterol increased significantly, but high cholesterol is genetic, and there is no heart disease in my family. I believe now that my family's high cholesterol actually keeps us from getting sick. I rarely got sick. We're told what we eat created cholesterol - but after I quit eating any animal fats, or dairy or oil - my body produced a huge amount of cholesterol on its own. And I feel, look and act healthier with lots of it in my body. So, I started looking for research that could explain this, and came across all of the research that shows that cholesterol may actually prevent disease, and that it heals me and keeps me healthy. We need to stop allowing drug companies to push statins on people who will actually become sicker by taking them.

]]> Wed, 15 Nov 2017 10:24:02 UTC 21880710 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/21871128?utm_medium=rss I am very healthy, work, raise my kids and have very few days off work, but because of my consistently 'high' cholesterol, initially found during a routine health check, I am restricted in which home and travel insurance providers I can choose. My GP has said she will prescribe statins for me when I turn 50 (I'm 45) which I will then be expected to take for life. I am reluctant to do this, because I do not feel the evidence is robust and, as a healthy person with no medical conditions, I do not wish to take a daily tablet for the rest of my life for no scientifically discernible reason. I believe Evidence Based Practice is the way to proceed for the UK's NHS, and I do not think statins fall into this category.

]]> Mon, 7 Aug 2017 06:39:13 UTC 21564501 https://gopetition.com/signature/locate/21550769?utm_medium=rss I took statin drugs for 13 months. Each visit I complained to my doctor of debilitating muscle pain & inability to walk with balance. I was runwalking for an hour a day and lifting weights at my gym thrice weekly. During the time of taking the drugs, as each day passed I became less able and to the point I was unable to exercise at all. Within 6 months of stopping the drugs and at the same time of stopping, my doctors offices closed yet opening to a weight loss clinic with beauty enhancements,
It has been 7 years since stopping the drugs on my own, against my medical doctor demands I continue taking the drugs. After I told the doctor I stopped drugs, she wrote in my chart "not tolerant to drugs". At no time during 13 month, did my doctor record in my chart that I complained of muscle pain at each visit. I soon learned that despite stopping the drugs, muscle damages worsen and the muscle losses continued to the point of 80% muscle loss. I have inability to regain muscle mass despite trying and no amount of proper diet intake, amino acid supplements, or weight lifting seems to allow me to regain muscles.
I have aged by 25 years after taking the drugs. "THE PREMATURE AGING DRUGS"

My wife has been on satin drugs for years as her family has heart failure history. I at least have convinced her to take a supplement called Coenzyme Q10 which may mitigate the harmful dementia side effects of the satin drugs. I refuse to take any satin drugs and one of the positive side effects of the natural supplement I take for my bone on bone joint pain is it has anti-inflammatory properties.

My extensive sports training at the time - causing a slight raise in CK - was deemed inappropriate, as it would mask statin related myopathy. Furthermore, statin effects are at best marginal, and side effects may be much mores significant. Given the current controversy (BMJ -The Lancet), I think all drug trial related data has to be reviewed independently (and thus has to be available to the public).
