Many many
thanks all.
All of
your advice has been so helpful.
I have
now taken my first tablet. I have also been very good about food (today
anyway). I have in fact been careful about what I eat without being
obsessive. I have also discovered that I can do laps of my house, inside,
making reasonable good time. If I go out anywhere, I'm just so phobic
about someone brushing past me, bumping me etc. that I can hardly walk at
all.
OH, well,
little steps they say.
Hugs,

I HAVE BEEN ON IT FOR A LONG TIME. SIDE EFFECTS ARE MUSCLE
PAIN. I TAKE CO-Q10 TO HELP WITH THAT.
YOU MIGHT TRY FISH OIL TO HELP WITH THE CHOLESTEROL. IT DOES GREAT
AND YOU MIGHT NOT HAVE TO TAKE THE LIPITOR, DEPENDING ON HOW HIGH YOURS
IS. TRY 4000 MCG, 2000 TWICE A DAY, AND TEST IN ONE MONTH. I WAS
TAKING LIPITOR AND IT DID NOT DO GOOD ENOUGH SO MY DR PUT ME ON FISH OIL AND
CONTINUED THE LIPITOR AND THAT REDUCED IT BY 50% MORE.
GOOD LUCK
EXERCISE AND EAT THE RIGHT FOOD.

My doctor
has just prescribed Lipitor-atorvastatin calcium- to decrease my
cholesterol. For about the first time in my life, I have actually read
up on it and all the side effects. Can only say "NOT HAPPY
JAN"
I know that
there is a wealth of info on this list so please please please help.
I'm not taking one tablet until I hear from you.
Hugs
