Default Lipitor for me

At 66 was still running 25 to 20 mi per week and 2 rounds of golf and bowling.Weighed in at 175- 6'2". Noticed some shortness of breath when running. Had Ekg and triple bypass 4 wks later. Non smoker(ever) non drinker and generally ate healthy. Colestorol prior to Lipitor over 200-ldl= 130+. Now with Lipitor total C= 102- ldl 50. In my case diet has little discernable impact on C level.
