Excuse me? I have published a set of PUBLISHED references on Statin Adverse
Effects to watch out for that is currently EIGHTY SIX PAGES in length,
available at:

http://www.freewebs.com/stopped_our_statins/StatinFAQ_031305wTOCv4.pdf

This is a set of PUBLISHED MEDICAL STUDIES on adverse effects.

This research was done to help others avoid PREVENTABLE disability from
statin adverse effects by watching for these adverse effects and recognizing
them as such. It was also done in the course of a search for treatment and
prognosis for full recovery.


That many physicians are unaware of these adverse effects, even those listed
on the Lipitor PI, is common knowledge, and obvious by the numerous queries
of people who describe exactly those effects upon starting a satin, yet
relating that their doctors tell them it could not be related.
