I'm a 46 year old guy - I am going on 180 days at 20mg before bed. I am having pain above my knees, weight gain, itchy shins and breasts, daily headaches that go away if I take two aspirin, some short bouts of depression, stomach pain (I feel like I ate rocks), dizziness/loss of balance. I'd rather have high cholesterol and try to do better with what I eat vs having the side effects.
