I have had consistent low back pain for months
Orthopedists do not find much other than bulging discs
Now wondering if it is due to repatha which I have taken for many months

I have been on Repatha for 2.5 years and my brother for about 8 years. We have experienced no side effects at all. In fact, I was able to get rid of the other statins and so was he. I have 3 stents in my LAD artery and I would rather not take chances. And, BTW, had low back pain for the first time in my life, for a couple of months about 6 month ago. I am 81. I Go to a gym a couple of days a week and my trainer cured that in a few sessions.

@bmcel the worse low back pain of my life was caused by Repatha. It is one of the main side effects. It has taken about 6 months to completely go away after quitting Repatha.
