I take Crestor. How does it almost kill someone?
Severe circulatory restriction, for one. Resultant organ damage, for another. I believe the side effects were far more widespread, and am shocked it’s still on the market. I quit the drug about 15 years ago after being on it only a matter of months, not having been warned of any side effects other than muscle stiffness by my doctor... a symptom I reported early and he dismissed (the symptoms got far worse and I quit it unilaterally, firing my doctor, recovering my health on my own, writing a book about that later).
I suggest that you read this immediately:

High blood cholesterol is not what doctors preach, but I’m not having that discussion here.
