Little white pills symptoms and conditions

Just checking in after nearly a year or so, during which I cut my 10 mg Lipitor dose in HALF! I knife the little white pills down the middle and take 5 mg per day. My doctor did not notice any difference and HDL/LDL etc, are still in the range he likes. So, let's see about symptoms. The Plantar's Fasciitis is still there, but much improved, probably because I gave up full court basketball (at age 55). I have a few other symptoms that I recognize from others posting about them, such as occasional muscle ticks, general malaise, and sleep disorders, but, in general, I seem to be tolerating the 5 mg dose better than the 10 mg dose, AND, most importantly, it IS at a therapeutic level. I have not mentioned this to my Dr., and will keep it that way. If he can't tell, then my plan is working, sort of.

I really think Lipitor is poison and will eventually kill anyone who uses it, but am hoping I can cheat the hangman with the 5mg doses. I don't want to go back to cholesterol readings in the 250-plus range, because heart disease is the big killer in my family.

We'll see how 5 mg goes. I'm not suggesting anyone else necessarily should try this, but I was amazed that the numbers on my labs were almost identical as the 10mg.
