My brother had an MI last fall. One stent. He had a high lipid panel and has for a long time. He hated the statins b/c of the side effects. He pivoted hard in his diet and lost 30 lbs. His lipids are all now normal.
Nonetheless, they still keep pushing it under the guise of "protocol." He has challenged them on it and has held firm. Proud of him.
Stopped taking statins 2 months ago because of side effects, following the above routine, and feel much better.
