Rezdiffra: Taken this med? Side effects?

As a noted in my previous posts, I had the NASH Fibrosure test and it came back with F2 Fibrosis and "High" Steatosis. I was sent to have an MRI (without contrast) with elastography last week (finally). Just got the results, and they seem to be significantly different? I'm not sure how to interpret these, and the doc hasn't been in touch. It says my Steatosis is "Mild", calculated mean liver stiffness is 2.2 kPa which is "Normal" and LIC is "Normal." The only thing I did since the NASH is lose a few more pounds, took Milkthistle every day, and went back on my very, very low dose Lipitor. I don't know if that is the reason or not. However, based on my BMI, the SofC recommendation is to lose yet another 14 pounds to be in the range of acceptable body fat.

I hate taking statins, but my cholesterol went from 146 to 244 in the year that I went off them when I was dealing with the cancer. I also forgot to mention that I have been getting acupuncture for fatty liver twice a week since my Fibrosure test. I think it has helped; it certainly has not hurt.
