You need to take Lipitor and stop or reduce your alcohol consumption.

DAMN IT!

I would seek a second opinion.

That's what I'm thinking.  Problem is that I have another bottle of Elmer and Pappy.  Plus I didn't include a bottle of EH Taylor Barrel Proof, a large bottle of Buffalo Trace, and a bottle of Caribou Crossing Canadian.  Could be a very long delay in taking the meds. Thinking I'll go to one drink a day and see what my follow up shows.

You clearly need to find a better physician!

Just cut back like he said
Not knowing how much or often you drink now, what about just drinking on the weekends?
Like Friday and Saturday nights? Without overdoing even that of course.

Send Pappy to me for proper disposal.

Thanks for good advice.  I generally sip about 1 or 2 ounces after work and before supper.  Then about the same again around an hour before sleep.  I really like the late night dram because old age aches and pains makes going to sleep difficult.  The bourbon really helps.  What I've done is cut out the before dinner drink.  Follow up appointment on 8 March.  We'll see if my liver and the Lipitor will let me continue to enjoy fine bourbon.  Wish me luck!
