Angry Crestor

Thanks for the info MrsD. My poor liver is always on the defensive... sometimes my enzymes are elevated. I also have a "fatty liver". This round of testing showed a bit of elevation with ALT at 68 (6-40) and albumen slightly elevated at 5.4 (3.6-5.1), others are borderline. Dag, maybe the meds I already take may be causing this... Thanks for the head's up on thyroid. This study has been done several times and then repeated and it appears to be okay...

I am really on the fence about Crestor. Actually, my triglycerides are much lower this round. Last testing showed them to be 368 (20-149). I think I will try the natural approach first with 3 g/day fish oil and CoQ10. I am taking fish oil now, but not enough at 1,200 mg/day. I do not take Cymbalta, but I do take Savella. I have repeat labs due January 2011, I will ask my primary doc about the VLDL...
