I have read a letter in an english magazine, this gentleman was on simvastatin 45 mg. for high colestrol the same as my O.H. and was suffering memory loss. After reading an article that simvastatin could cause memory loss he decided to stop taking it and after 2 months his memory had really improved. Has anyone else have any knowledge of this. It is probably pointless mentioning this to my Dr. out here as I have said in previous threads if it wasn't for a locum that was standing in for him my O.H. wouldn't have any medication., I am so grateful to him, hope he comes back again or the present Dr. retires. Don't get me wrong all though is old he is a really good Dr. providing the problems are not old age related. He diagnosed my skin cancer and had me in hospital within 2 weeks. Over the years we have been here we have received good treatment from him. We might just consider going private for O.H. if he gets worse, hes doing o.k. at the moment. Would appreciate anyone who has any information about sivastatin causing memory loss.
