My PCP has long said I have Gilbert’s. My bilirubin is usually around 1.6-1.7 mg/dl. AST and ALT are always slightly elevated. CAC was 1124 in 2021. I’ve been taking statins for ~ 35 years (past 10 on rosuvastatin 10 mg/day). Never had any side effects.

From what I read, people on atorvastatin seem to experience more side effects than those on rosuvastatin. But that is an impression, not a study.
