Crestor is to prevent early heart attack maybe due to high cholesterol.

Joe is either in his 80’s or close to them. So he is past the age for an early heart attack. Taking a Statin/Crestor at his age or my age is not really a wise move.

You are never too old to have a stroke. I’m on Eliquis 2x a day, and I don’t like not taking it. Strokes contributed to the death of my maternal granddad and his daughter, my mother.

My physician, at my request, reduced my Eliquis in half because I am now taking so many supplements that thin the blood.

She agreed.
