: please check this out and if you are try stopping the drug for awhile or have your doctor change you to a different drug.

Hey, John, did this memory loss happen with other statin drugs too? What did your doctor say about this side effect? It sounds like a potentially very serious one that no one hears off from either the doctors or the manufacturer.
