[AT] O. T. - Really tired today

[charlie hill]

I just recently got on medicare and now can afford doctors so I've been 
having
a lot of testing done.  My pharmacist friend told me,  "they'll probably put 
you on
statins"  my reply ..... NO THEY WON'T.   Actually I'm fortunate that I 
don't need to
be on them but even if I did I'd resist as much as possible.

Exactly. My cousin is one that has to have a statin - and in that case
it is great. I've been reading a lot of research when some doctors
advocate all adults should take a statin - on that they have not
convinced me.
