Due to my memory problems, I can only guess at these sorts of issues.
Sarah and I talked about this subject last week and she said that was
wrong about when I stopped working and stopped taking statins. I seem to
recall that I started taking statins about 3 months before I had to stop
working due to memory problems. I found out as a result of this newgroup
that statins caused memory problems so I stop taking them. I don't
remember the exact date that I stopped working or stopped taking statins.
I probably have that sort of information in my records but they are poorly
organized.
