I Take 40mg Of Zocor Daily. I Am Worried About

I take 40mg of Zocor daily. I am worried about the cancer factor as mentioned by Dr. Russell Blaylock .
I am a 65 year old woman, and small framed. Both my parents died of heart disease. Does Zocor come in a smaller dosage? My cholesterol is high if I don't take statins. What is your opinion on how to handle this concern. I don't want to get cancer trying to avoid a heart attack.
