[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP, I took a statin for years with no problem and then developed brain fog. It went away when I stopped the simvastatin but then recurred every time they prescribed a different one. Now my cholesterol numbers are elevated which makes me nervous with my family history of MI and stroke. I’m trying many other approaches, but nothing works like the statins, also with stabilizing plaque that has already accumulated. Our bodies make cholesterol and that is something that can’t be controlled. I’m not on any other meds so that narrowed down what was causing the brain fog I am jealous of those who can tolerate the statin! [/quote] I couldn’t either. My doctor put me on Wegovy instead, and it’s lowered the cholesterol levels considerably. [/quote]
