In reply to WORRIED can meds cause damage to the body?, posted by BRC on September 10, 2004, at 23:21:03
I think they can case some damage, but I guess it's a question of what is worse. The anxiety can cause damage in your personal psychological life, and high cholesterol probably has a higher chance of negatively impacting your health more than Lipitor. I guess it's a cost effect analysis that you have to do. I don't know if they would impact your life expectancy much, whereas high cholesterol most certainly would. You might think about checking with a psychopharmacologist to ease your concerns or identify anything that could really potentially harm your body.
Good luck and don't worrry (it's a symptom of anxiety!),
