PEP

I have been off the pep meds since June and my body is still acting weird I feel like I am dying from the inside and the doctors said this will pass but it seems to be getting worse. My question is has anyone every died because of the pep meds because when I was on the meds they almost killed me and now that I am off them I fell no better.

No, you will not die from the side effects of PEP medications. They can definitely have pretty horrible side effects that can make you feel absolutely terrible, and it can take your body a while to recover from them, but it will not kill you. Give it some more time and your body will get back to normal.
