Lipitor - Just heard that Blue Cross/Blue Shield will no longer cover Lipitor under their prescription coverage. Now, that's interesting!!! Heard this from a physician just today!!!!

From my reading about the situation it seems that BlueCross/BlueShield want patients to take generic which is much cheaper, I think. Also, to be prescribed higher dosage tablets which can then be halved. All this to try to bring down costs.

The subject of Lipitor caught my eye since my daughter just started using it and I found this site on a "google" search. When I saw the name of Susan Grayson I had to join (I know this is off subject) but I am on a committee to plan my Marina HS 1976 30th reunion and she is on my "find" list so I must ask if you are the same Susan? If yes, please email me at Elizlyn@aol.com.

Thank you and I actually moderate for the International Study for Dreams board and we use this same software Smile
