My cholesterol was through the roof and I started on meds about 3 years ago. Crestor and Lipotor gave me severe leg pain so I can't take them. I take Niaspan, Trilipix and Wel-Chol and my levels are perfect now. I've changed eating habits and have begun some exercise so I hope to reduce the number of meds I'm taking very soon.
If my cholesterol was only slightly elevated, I would have opted not to take the meds. I hate them.
My humble opinion? DON'T DO IT!! Change lifestyle instead.
