A friend of mine loves to retell this story: He went for a physical and the doctor told him it was amazing that he was so healthy. The doctor was familiar with my friend's father and brother (who both had a large variety of medical diagnoses). My friend explained his surprisingly good health by responding, "I don't go to doctors."
Since I had an almost identical experience, I'm going to guess the "borderline result" was cholesterol and the prescription was a statin, and the horrible side effect was abdominal pain or GI distress?
I took it for precisely two days and threw it in the garbage. I guess I won't be going back to a doctor until I'm an old woman and get some hereditary heart problem.

Statins always cause an uptick in my liver enzymes. PCPand crack cocaine are safer than those poisons.

Why even go then? I am an old woman, very healthy, and don't intend to jeopardize my health by going to a doctor!
Ha!!!
My so-called "bad cholesterol" has been high since birth and is likely genetic and has not yet been associated with any cardiovascular problems.
My so-called "good" HDLs are similarly high. My immune system has thus far been excellent.
Statins dispensed as harmless candy is bullshit.
