Of all the things I've lost, I miss my mind the most.

Sorry to hear that, you still might want to check out those other two supplements, as they really helped bring mine down. My whole family has high cholesterol, my Dad's was 400 when he had his heart attack, and I'm the only one left of my brother, sister, and I under 200 without taking Statins. I took one for 2 weeks, can't remember which, and ended up with such severe muscle pains in my calf, I had to stop taking it. I was glad the natural stuff worked for me.

I take this brand of Niacin, which is 500 mg, and have not had a problem with flushing. I've had horrible problems with other niacins, maybe a brand change would help?
