Hi I'm about on par with your progress myself. 54 yr male. I still need serious pain killers daily, having been off statins since mid Dec 07. Twice I have stopped taking my COQ10 supplements and I've paid for it, 3 days after going back on my COQ10 pain levels down 18 - 25% and energy levels up about the same. My mental, emotional and memory problems are continually improving. I still don't like myself or the barstard who did this to me and reckon I've probably got a year to go, but at least I'm optomistic I'll get there. There has been 2 old fellas in Australia recently lost the plot and killed harmed their family sure makes me wonder about medicines. Good luck from New Zealand
