Statins have been associated with increased risk of various neuro-muscular side effects for some time now, but there could be a new, dangerous class of problems linked to these (largely overprescribed) cholesterol-lowering drugs. In my July issue of Heart, Health & Nutrition, I relay the experience of a fellow doctor who suffered frightening memory problems while taking statins, and what you can do to avoid the same troubles. Also in this issue, Jan Sinatra, registered nurse and my wife, shares her thoughts on why bioidentical hormones are the way to go to manage menopause symptoms.
