Hi Lani,

My primarcy care physician just told me my cholesterol is out of control, but she didn't want to prescribe anything in view of all the toxic things I am already taking. But I am just on herceptin now (assuming my LVEF goes back up) and so this looks like a viable option, if not an enhancement to my present treatment.

I wonder if I don't go back on herceptin because of the LVEF issue if this med would be helpful without herceptin?

Have a great day!

Donna
