I am 51 taking Livalo for about a year now. My cholesterol numbers are great, and my side effects have been next to nothing. Previous statins were intolerable with pain, overall discomfort. Now - no abnormal aches and pain. I have gained a good bit of weight though. I am beginning to blame the meds. If I keep gaining I am going to be a blimp with good cholesterol.

Forteo became a part of my…

Forteo became a part of my life on October 26, 2010 and finished February 24, 2011.

I was well prepared through my endricnologist’s knowledge and explanation, the technician who taught me the shot procedure and the Forteo information book which I read over and over again to learn all about the marvelous “new” medicine which would “build” me NEW BONES!

\My hope was high!

As time progressed, while daily shots continue my body noted different sensations it had never felt….terrible painful gas, diarrhea, muscle pains as well as aching hot muscles.

“Oh! Well part of the treatment. If Forteo does what it is touted to do, I can stand this discomfort. The booklet says this does happen.

Daily shots continue; the booklet re-read and now the information sheet which accompanies my refill. All reading materials say the same.

The Holidays approach and I am accepting the discomfort, however, as a woman in the holiday season, “I MUST DO!”

About a week before Christmas, I began to feel awful.

Our home was new, consequently, Christmas must be celebrated “here”. With family help, all went smoothly. My thinking told me that having the distraction of holiday preparation, children and grandchildren had done the trick—I was feeling better!

This did not last long. My appetite left accompanied by general all consuming weakness, depression, headaches, constant exhaustion and sleeping at every chance—during meals, Church, every time I sat down.

This is definitely different, not in the books.

We had planned a trip to Arizona for part of the winter. I could not go feeling this poorly. Almost all expenses were paid. Others were coming to share and stay with us. There was no way a cancellation could happen. I could go to Arizona to sleep!

I decided to see my Primary Care physician guessing he would tell me I had a virus. He ran blood tests and the next day he reported that my liver enzymes were especially high---so elevated that he took me off the Forteo. He spoke with the Endiconologist who did not agree that the Forteo might have caused the problem. With thanks to my Primary Care, I stopped.

October 9, 2011, I find out if permanent damage has been done to my liver by this new medicine that will “build” me NEW BONES!
