High Cholesterol
"For about 6 years my physician prescribed Lipitor for high cholesterol. I couldn&#039;t take it due to muscle cramps. After that I was prescribed Zocor, Pravachol and finally the orange drink, Colestipol. Always had adverse side effects so I decided to stop trying. I lost 20 pounds but before the cholesterol dropped with any real significance, I regained the weight. The physician kept saying my cholesterol was dangerously high but I did not want the side effects. 



I had to change insurance companies which meant a new physician. This one said the same along w/a bit of a lecture. She prescribed Crestor, 5mg per day. After 3 months &amp; no side effects it went from 280 to 155. I couldn&#039;t believe it. I am 60 years old."
