I'm quadriplegic, C-2 level for 20+ years now, recently started experiencing chest palpitations and shortness of breath. So I had my blood checked and my cholesterol levels (bad stuff) was extremely high, so my Dr put me on Lipitor.

So I had my blood checked and my cholesterol levels (bad stuff) was extremely high, so my Dr put me on Lipitor. It caused me to cramp in my legs and my joints killed me, so much that even my Fentanyl patch for my daily pain didn't touch it! I went back to see my Dr about this so he put me on Livalo 2mg daily and almost within days, no more leg & back cramps or pain and after 4 months, my chest & breathing is really great, no more palpitations or shortness of breath. I go back in two weeks to see how it's working on lowering the LDL levels and will post the results, but I'm sure it's doing something good with hardly any unbearable side effects, unlike Lipitor!

I have a lot of reactions to several types of medications. I tried several different cholesterol meds and had problems. I always take it with food. I have been on Livalo for 2 weeks and no reactions. For me, it deserves a high rating.

I recently turned 50. I have been taking Livalo for high Cholesterol for approximately two weeks I have been experiencing all kinds of symptoms like can't think straight, emotional pain, no sexual desire, can't sleep through the night, feel totally exhausted and have missed several days of work. Now my doctor prescribed Androgel for low testosterone levels. Then I read cholestrol drugs cause major testosterone problems. Honestly I would rather die of a heart attack then have to keep taking this medicine!
