Ever thought your cholesterol medication would affect your peripheral nerves? New research shows that with prolonged treatment with statin medications there is often long term damage done to peripheral nerves.
Cholesterol medications are not always necessary. Cholesterol levels have not been proven to be the factor leading to heart disease. With taking medications there are always unknown side effects, but with cholesterol medications there are many conditions that can be linked with the use of these drugs. Along with increased peripheral nerve damage, statin drugs also increases your chance by 50% for acquiring diabetes. If you or someone you know has developed peripheral nerve damage or are becoming diabetic, look into your history and remember statin medications can lead to these conditions!

If you have high cholesterol, chances are very good that you have been prescribed or will soon be prescribed a drug such as Simvastatin, Lovastatin, Pravastatin or Zocor. These are a few examples of drugs that belong to a group called statins. They were developed to lower cholesterol levels, but what you may not have been told is that these are powerful drugs with many possible side effects. True informed consent (a procedure that EVERY physician and health care provider is REQUIRED to perform) mandates that prior to starting ANY prescription or treatment, the patient is to be made aware of all potential risks (i.e. side effects) involved. Please take a moment to review this well written article by MIT Senior Scientist Dr. Stephanie Seneff. In this article Dr. Seneff provides links to 13 different sites that have well referenced information about the dangers of Statin Drugs.
