re posting 8168 When I wrote that my brother (age 56) is no longer wearing leg braces it is only because he chose too. These braces were uncomfortable so the only improvement (which is something) is that after 2 months off Lipitor, he can lift the left leg a little instead of dragging it. We have noticed this improvement after 1 month off the Lipitor. We have researched the type of food that will bring down cholesterol and the foods I have listed on posting "8168" I believe did it. The first item I have reason to believe that helps is the tea 5-6 cups PLUS of tea a day. In his case he drank your regular type of tea.
