Some of these numbers are shocking. Mine was 332. I've tried statins and non-statins (zetia) but can't tolerate them - bad rash reaction. I itch enough already from the eliquis! My sister-in-law has been on statins her whole life; just had some stents put in! I've heard it's all genetics. You have to go your own way. I'm putting my situation on a lower priority. I just got diagnosed with SMM. Good luck, my friend.
