high cholesterol
"My doctor asked me to try Livalo for high cholesterol due to my blood sugar raising when I was on atovastatin.  I stopped taking Atovastatin because I had nightmares on it and felt like my legs had an aching dull pain most of the time. Livalo is very expensive at $65.00 per month!
I will get my numbers checked this week for Livalo.  So far I had pain in my fingers, palm of my hand, and knee pain for the first 2 weeks.  After 1 month all of the pain has subsided, but now I find my fasting glucose numbers are beginning to get higher than when not on cholesterol medication.  If my fasting glucose continues to rise, I will stop taking Livalo even if it helps my cholesterol numbers."
