So it should be considerably less by spring as well. Thx for the info on Lipitor - we're getting the generic with the Caremark/CVS plan for 90 days at a time, but I didn't realize it was that inexpensive to actually buy. That's one answer... maybe we'll just put David on a higher dose of baby aspirin for the anti-platelet therapy instead of Plavix for April and May while we're gone -- he has enough Plavix through March. JUST KIDDING!!! Cheers! Jan
