Brian C nad Biologist
I am a 54 yr old English woman and I have been severely damaged by statins - left with memory loss/cognitive problems, neuropathy - and I have aged 20yrs after being on Simvastatin for 28 months. I already had a low WBC count as I have an existing muscle problem ME/CFS, I was taking permanent medication for my kidneys, and I enjoyed an alcoholic drink. All these are contra-indications to being prescribed a statin. And yes I want to sue my DR who doesn't give a toss about the damage that he has done to me - just the additional money that he receives as he hits his annual targets to the tune of £110,000 per annum.Are you two going to help me - Jeff in the UK has agreed?Pamela

What can I do Pamela? After 17 years of mitochondrial poisoning I'm not up to much and seldom go out. Anything that strongly engages my emotions I find crippling. I'm afraid I'm likely as much use as the proverbial chocolate tea-pot.
