Hi,
Thanks for your query.
High cholesterol levels does not induce fatigue. Some times fatigue due to other causes can cause high cholesterol.
Your problems like fatigue and contraction disturbance in lower limbs is entirely a different problem with underlying cause in the nervous system or the musculoskeletal system.
You may have to be examined by a Neurologist to determine the cause for the same.
