I could have told them that

According to this piece of research high dose statins make you more likely to develop type 2 diabetes.

A new study has found that people taking high doses of cholesterol-lowering statin drugs are at a 12% higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

No shit Sherlock?

I was placed on high dose statins years ago and over a period became too weak to walk, unable to lift anything and developed type 2 diabetes.

Since I refused to take the high dose statins my cholesterol levels have dropped, I have lost the aches and pains in muscles (which even doctors now recognise as a side effect of statins) and regained the ability to move about (although still limited by other factors).

The "cure" is often worse than the illness.

Well I did buy some there but Lil Bruvver "imports" his supplies from Spain and Ireland and gets mine at the same time.
