I have been on Repatha for more than 9 years and have been on it since the early stages it has been a life saver literally and I have not had any side effects I am aware of. I could not take any of the Statin class of drugs due to horrible muscle spasm thru my hole body and bad joint pain. I also have multiple heart issues. As I said this has been a game changer for me.
I love this medication. It lowered my LDL down to 14! The day after I inject I am a little bit tired, if I ever get a low back ache once in a while I just take a dons pill and it is gone in 20 minutes it has been a wonderful medication for me. A little nose, drip, and some sinus congestion and that’s it.
This is very encouraging to me. I have been suffering what seems to be a sinus infection for 11 weeks and my doctors have told me to wait until it resolves to start injections of Repatha. I had a CT scan of sinuses this morning so I hope to get this finally resolved so I can proceed. I absolutely could not tolerate statin therapy.

It does sound to work for a lot of people, definitely worth trying. I got this pain in my right side, eventually startled awake thinking, “I forgot to breathe” (which of course doesn’t happen). Then, must have been something esophageal because I remember hunting for something real peppermint for relief. I’m probably weird 🙂
I cannot take statins, tried every kind, every dose. Tried Repatha TWO times. I wanted it to work for me, but, again, the pain reduced my quality of life too much to continue. I just heard about Nexleton for those that can’t tolerate statins. The list of side effects is long and scary. I have been trying these drugs for 30 years and feel like a poster child for horrible side effects that sometimes take months to get over. It feels like I am wrecking my body with these medication “trials.” I am sad and at a loss. My doctor has convinced me that I am dying of CAD, but the only time I feel like I am dying is when I take these medications. I am so worn out.

Yep! Repatha did not work very well reducing my LDL, and I finally connected side effects, I believe after injection #9.

Repatha lowered my LDL to an astonishing degree and I’ve never encountered any side effects.
