@llynch17056 One shot of Repatha next morning every joint in my body hurt - much worse than muscle pain from two statins! Hospital for 2 wks on morphine for pain, could not stand or walk then wks in rehab detoxing from it! Right leg swollen with edema took 2 months to detox! No 2 nd shot for me!

What are the doctors suggesting now for your cholesterol?

Sorry to hear of that. I had to quit statins about ten years ago due to severe joint pain and my cardiologist put me on Repatha. I’ve used it for over two years and have had no adverse effects. It dropped my cholesterol from near 300 to 160 in three months.

Was there an explanation for the extreme reaction? For example, were you allergic to something in Repatha?

I am still trying to understand that insidious (for me) drug.
