I suffered side effects from 3 or so months of Crestor. Increased urination, some back/kidney pain. Did not feel right at all. Kind of sluggish as per a hang over. I believe it may have caused higher insulin reqs but I will not swear on it.

Of course it's all circumstantial but I think I'm relatively good at working out what's causing what (as per lots of type 1s dealing with BGs!) and it was certainly a particluar set of symptoms on vs off.

I took Lipitor before with some success and returned to it, with no problems. I wonder if there is another choice for you to try, if you feel that Crestor is causing ill side effects.
