Is anyone else talking Wegovy for heart disease?
The FDA recently approved Wegovy for heart disease. My medicare Advance Plan now covers it at $99 a month so I started on it this week. I cannot take any statins, I couldn’t even take red yeast rice. I was on Repatha which brought my numbers down, but it has the nasty side effect of maybe making you diabetic which worried me greatly. Repatha brought my numbers down so now that i have switched to Wegovy I’m wondering if Wegovy will maintain those lower numbers for me. I do like the Wegovy side effect of weight loss. I LOVE how my brain is thinking about food now.

I did not know that about Repatha. What are you now taking for Cholesterol?
