A patient came to my office recently and told me she had stopped her statin. She’d been on it for two years. Her coronary artery calcium score was 280 and LDL was 168, up almost 100 points since she had stopped taking her statin. Her father had died from a heart attack at 58.
When I asked about the decision, she crossed her arms and furrowed her brow.
