Before 1984, a cholesterol level of 230 was in the normal range.

Now that I have learned more about cholesterol, IF i could pick any number for my cholesterol level, it would be 230. You were doing great! Look forward to hearing how you do after stopping the poison. Bobby

Hello. I am 40 years old. My cholesterol was high due to family genes. I have been on Simvistatin (genetic Zocor) for almost 3 months now. While my cholesterol was brought down wonderfully, the side effects are slowly killing the person i once was. I now know that from reading these posts (THANK YOU!) that everything i have been feeling are results of this drug!!! I have muscle tremors at night, I have aches and pains, I have DEPRESSION which there is no reason for, headaches that i wake up with, anxiety attacks that i never had before!! They are serious when they say this drug is poison. I will be stopping this drug and will find something else to help my cholesterol. I want to be free of this bondage!!!
