: Had my 6 mo. checkup after having a stent placed for 85% blockage. Thallium test was excellent. Have been on Pravachol and for last six weeks lipitor. Cholesterol 202 now 154 Triglycerides 294 now 144 HDL 34 now 38 LDL 109 now 87 LDL/HDl ratio 3.2 now 2.3. Lipitor has not always made me feel the best but seeing the numbers somehow makes it all worth it. I did low fat diet and moderate excercise along with the lipitor,

Well I am glad to hear your doing so much better. Congrats. on getting those numbers down. I know what you mean about Lipitor, but seeing it helped, just do the best you can. I just couldn't handle Lipitor,even though it brought the numbers down, so now on Baycol, 4mg. Will see the results on the 27th of Nov. Hope all stays well with you. Good luck!
