Daleny,my current MD tries every time ,,,"OH you need Statins",,I know she knows that I know she is required by her employer to up sell them.I have had the talk and asked her why on earth would I suffer pain /weak legs/ in order to save what the researchers have figured a few days at best of life.I last time said you can take them I wont,,,she whispered"I know where you are coming from",,I will not tell you what to do with your or your wifes health.I am darn sure the weight loss has added way more to your quality of life in the future than the attempted prescription.There are other parameters to check so good luck.
Have a hard time believing your doctor is trying to upsell when generic statins are pennies a day. Best I can tell only 5-10% of folks have side effects. I started with similar numbers and within 6 months of starting my numbers are great with no change in diet or exercise. Been 10 years. Within a few weeks I felt better than I had for 15 years. Your mileage may vary but works for me and millions of others. |
