123crod 170 Posted August 1, 2012 Okay about 8 months ago my doctor put me on Crestor to lower my cholesterol level. I did not want to do it as I did not like the reviews on the drug. A lot of bad side effects. I took Zeta for a weekend and thought I might die from it so had my doctor change me and he almost won't take no for an answer for the Crestor. I went to get the prescription and asked for just 3 days worth and thought if I lived through it I would pick up the rest. Well it was a rough couple of days and then really bad joint pain for a couple of months and then all side effects stopped. Today I got my blood results back and my cholesterol levels are perfect. So if you need something that really works I say ask for it. I was on another one for 2 years and it did nothing for me. cheri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2012 359 Posted August 2, 2012 Now if only they would only come out with a generic, I stopped taking it due to cost. I have an HSA account and for 3 months it cost almost $400.00. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
123crod 170 Posted August 2, 2012 I went to their website and you can register for a card and you do not have to pay more than $50/month for a year. I used mine at Sam's Good with insurance or without. Cheri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2012 359 Posted August 2, 2012 Thank you 123crod, I wish I knew about that before because I really need to be on it. Looks like I'm going to the Little Clinic to get back on this again. But hopefully as I lose more weight (just banded 09JUL2012) it will get a lot better. Thanks so much!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
