For my dad that is. I take him to his appts. b/c he doesn't understand certain things in English and likes to have me there for security. Fist found his high chol. last Feb or so, got on lipitor, was only taking it twice a week, tweaked his diet a bit, and got the # to 183. For the past 4 mths or so started taking the lipitor religiously, kept eating well,except for Holidaysand on dec 30 found his # @ 207 AND now has high blood pressure. Doc said that HBP could be attributed to the Lipitor as he is taking it the way he should now. Doc said we'll be changing meds very soon. My dad's a landscaper so none of this is due to lack of excercise, he works very strenuously. Anybody know of any supplements/herbs/homeopathic things to lower chol., he gets quite frustrated w/ this whole meds thing, says the gov't is the biggest bunch of drug dealers there are
