I'm 46 years old male. I am very active. Water Ski, Snow Ski, Wei...

you are about the same as me, but mine is just a constant case of the throat phlegm and muscular weakness. My cholesterol was not very much higher at first so I don't see the benefit of taking this potentially toxic and expensive chemical. I used it for 2 months and told the doctor to cancel the prescription. No problems with erections, fortunately, and so far no kidney or liver damage. Very little change in cholesterol. And it is good to be able to eat grapefruit again!

No, do not go back on it. Ever. This stuff can cripple you. Literally. It can put you in a wheelchair if you ignore the symptoms and keep taking it. I can make your hands so useless some on else has to spoon feed you and wipe your bottom for you. Personally, I'd rather die from a heart attack-I mean that. This drug is horrible.

No don't go back on it. I went off it two years ago nd stayed off for a couple of months and the side effects which hadn't been that severe, went away. My doctor (VA keeps changing players) told me to go back on and then recently dioubled the dose. I'm miserable, now, it's far worse, and I'm getting off the damn thig. I'd rather die ofa heart attack. Amen.
