5.5 years Lupron/Zytiga, still <.01. Just a good story to share on Prostate Cancer
(
Lipitor
20mg gave him leg pain, switched to Crestor 5mg). He did 20+ sessions of radiation. PSA dropped to "undetectable" in 2 months and stayed there). In 2020 he reduced his Zytiga to 2 pills, 500mg a day, because he hates "horse pills", but knows it's working.

Covid-Induced Holiday
My Primary Care wanted to put my on Paxlovid for 5 days but was concerned about interactions with my Orgovyx and
Lipitor
. Both should be stopped during the 5 days on Paxlovid and then for 7 days following the Paxlovid dosage.

Questioning my need for flecainide or amiodarone
I went home from the hospital on Amiodarone, Metoprolol Tartrate, Isosorbide, Xarelto and
Lipitor
(even though my cholesterol was never high.) I have not had a single episode since (because it only happened a few times/year anyway).

Scared and Confused
My husband also has uncontrollable high blood pressure that seems to be reacting to
Lipitor
well. Any words of encouragement or direction would help. Biopsy is scheduled for the 20th and fear is setting in.

Which statin to take with Nubeqa/Darolutamide? Pitivastatin or a different statin?
It says that Crestor and
Lipitor
(and other statins) can accumulate and cause problems/side effects. Looks like
Lipitor
is better, with Nubeqa, than Crestor. However, they list
Lipitor
as a potential interaction as well.

breast pain
the only other change has been that my
Lipitor
was increased from 20 mg to 80 mg to combat inflammation. Anyone else having these issues?

Rosuvastatin Issue

Lipitor
His
Lipitor
was increased to 80 mg per day. We have not been advised as to why. Since February he has been extraordinarily tired, dozing for most of the day. A couple of weeks ago I re-read the leaflet from the
Lipitor
box and tiredness is a side-effect.

High cholesterol
My doctor has prescribed generic
Lipitor
. I’ve been putting off any Rx for cholesterol a few years now. Wondering if anyone had any side effects as I haven’t picked it up yet. Or what you are taking with good results. Thanks!

Thoughts on Statins
Hi, I've recently had a blood test which showed I have a high cholesterol level and I have AF; my GP wants me to take Statins, he's prescribed
Lipitor
. Reading the leaflet has me a bit worried about the side effects and wondered if anyone can share their experience with me.
