[QUOTE]Is brisk walking for 40 minutes a day not good enough exercise?
It's GOOD but it's not CARDIAC GOOD! Anything you do to get you over 150 BPM for say 15 minutes and STAY there is what you need do...if you can still squeeze in the total 40 minutes around the cardiac burst, that's better still.
Good luck with the Vytorin or Crestor...but MAYBE a weaker statin might be a good idea if Lipitor gave you trouble...like lovastatin or pravistatin.
In any case start with the smallest dose and work up to give you the best shot at avoinding side effects. IF you can take the Zetia without problems, then maybe the Vytorion IS ideal?
