@agb thank you! Statins have caused my liver enzymes to rise and my next option is repatha. You have made me feel like I’m not doomed for suffering from this drug or I have a chance. Thank you. I wish more would post that have had good results.

I had the same issues with pancreas issues with statins. In fact, my lipase levels caused pancreatitis with hospital stays twice.
I have been on Repatha now for several
Months and my cholesterol are great. I now have to still address my triglycerides. But I don’t have any side affects after the first couple months. Even then it was only a skin reaction with itching but dissipated after about 4 injections.
Good luck! It has been a great alternative for me.
I have been on Repatha for about 3 years, as others have said it is a game changer. The day I inject I take an Advil and my Multi vitamin for sure and I might be a little tired the next day but that is it. I know some people get stomach issues for a couple days but honestly take a Pepsid, this drug is such a life saver that If I have to do a couple things for a day or two I will gladly do it. Plus after you have been on it for a while they do go away, at least for me they did. At least give it a try.
