which one is right ?

Doctors vex me ! I was surfing the web and decided to look up the side effects of zocor which I’ve been taking everyday for several years. So I find this doctor says it may cause forgetfulness, disorientation, and confusion. On the other hand, WebMD says it may cut Alzheimers ! Go figure ! How the hell can it be good for Alzheimers and cause forgetfulness, disorientation, and confusion ?

This is a matter of concern to me because my Mother has memory problems and my Father-in-law has Alzheimers.  I would like to avoid these problems myself if I can. I do tend to be forgetful fairly often. An example would be going to the store and not remembering why I went there etc.  Last time I saw the doctor I asked about that, but he didn’t seem to be concerned about it. I suppose I’ll just have to keep alert about this and learn more about the subject.
