Now I'm afraid to ask if the Lipitor isn't working too good. Dear Edward, Great to hear that the lipitor is working so well, your levels were fairly high which is a risk factor for coronary and peripheral artery disease. If you the patient feel there is something wrong, even if its not a life-threatening condition, it should be fully investigated until relief or a cause is found. Keep in mind that even a normal stress test is no guarentee that you do not have blockages in your coronary arteries. I hope this information is useful.
