ive been on a ten mg lipitor for about a year. i am 42 and have been in decent health 2yrs ago it was revealed during a routine physical my cholesterol and triglycerides were extremely high. I smoked ate whatever i wanted to and my exercise wasn't what i would call regular. i started taking the lipitor in july of 08 in October i went back for blood tests that were excellent everything normal. By November i was in the hospital having a cardiac stent put in my coronary artery.
