Fantastic study. It was the act of taking a pill that induced symptoms, not the statins in the pill themselves—even if side effects stopped when the pill was discontinued. The human mind/brain is a player in everything. “Some patients had fewer symptoms on statins than placebo.”https://twitter.com/JWatch/status/1441029583042719744 …

It was an N=60 study so I’m not sure what conclusions to draw from it. Maybe that’s not enough people to come to any strong conclusion. For my N=1: all I know is that my knees ached like crazy until I switched statins, and then they felt normal again.

The "biopsychosocial" model with the emphasis on psychology is embedded in the medical profession in the UK. They did and continue to do a lot of damage to ME/CFS patients with the same approach.https://www.statnews.com/2021/08/22/delay-british-chronic-fatigue-guidelines-setback-for-me-cfs-long-covid/ …
