hsminc,

How were his other lipids?

Given what you noted, and broad recommendation, was he on statins at some point?

Yes- he had been on zocor since 2003. When he started Repatha he was still on zocor. After about three months on zocor and repatha, his CAD specialist discontinued the zocor. At that point, his LDL was 16 and his total cholesterol was about 100 - as I remember. The CAD specialist thought this was dangerous to his brain!
