hi there, hoping for some advice, my doctor wants me on statins but I really don’t want to take them- are these results really that dangerous? I’ve been feeling very tired lately and they have reduced my thyroxine.
generally a healthy woman apart from having tonsil cancer 2018 and hypothyroidism of which I am on levothyroxine 125mmg after Hemi thyroidectomy in 2020 - currently menopausal - feel I am fairly healthy and active, eat a good non processed diet , dont drink or smoke, I’m 53 need some advice as I’m feeling worried & these results mean absolutely nothing to me - TIA
