Sometimes. CAD is what causes heart attacks, and over half of all heart attacks are fatal. It can also cause heart failure, which can also be fatal.

Fortunately there are treatments that can prevent, arrest or slow the progression of CAD, so many people with this condition will live a normal lifespan and die of something else.

From high cholesterol on its own no I don't think so, but it increases the risks of things like heart attack & slow blood flow to parts of the body (gang green). So side effects can kill you yes.

This question I am aswell trying to figure out. My great-grandma has three blockages in the heart and one in the brain, so she can't go in for surgery on her eyes. I'm extremely upset because as a kid I promised when I got my driver's license her and I would go everywhere, and this day may never come.
