By the way, doctor. I recently started taking Lipitor for high cholesterol. The label says: "Do not eat grapefruit or drink grapefruit juice at any time while taking this medication." My doctor didn't warn me about grapefruit. Several medically trained friends have never  heard of such a thing. I love grapefruit. Is there really anything to worry about?
