I m 67 years old and feel really healthy compared to most of the folks around me . I m scared to death of the side effects of this drug Atorvastatin . I m taking 4 different drugs for type 2 diabetes . Metformin , Glimmpride , Fenofibrate and Lisinopril . I really don t want to include another drug because of all the side effects . My cholesterol and Triglycerides have always been high but are down from 490 and 4300 to around 200 on both . Do I really need to add another drug to my daily routine . My blood pressure was 115 /66 this morning and my pulse was 73 and I have no signs of diabetes in my feet or eyes and get checked every 6 months . Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.
