Hi Picard,

Taken Lipitor? Yeah, since the early 90's
My cholesterol was in the high 290's.
Diet, exercise, all the rest got me down to about 260. (bad genes)
One Lipitor a day (10mg) got me to 160, a hundred point drop.
No side effects yet...but a friend at work did have to stop because of some "problems" and was given a non-statin.
