Just a question to throw out. My cholesterol was going up and the Dr. put
me on lipitor. The pain in my joints and muscles was terrible. When I stopped the lipitor and started with fish oil everything is much better. They will check my cholesterol again in two months, if it is still going up,
I don't know what I will do. Do I continue Arimidex and have high cholesterol or continue Lipitor and have no protection for Estrogen positive
cancer???
