Hello:  I am at odds with my Doctor and I refuse to take statins.  Everything I have read points statins to possible diabetes and dementia.   I don’t believe that I am high risk for heart disease but she feels because my brother died from it and my LDL is elevated that it is genetic.  My brother lived a different lifestyle which I believe caused his death.   What is your feeling on satins in relation to brain health.   Thank you!
