@tatiana987 Yes, you are right, depression is a cognitive effect. So no cognitive effects, including no depression on Leqvio. How low did your LDL go on Leqvio? I will be curious to see what happens to mine, I get a test in 3 weeks. My LDL on Repatha dropped to 54. Your theory sounds interesting, I will be curious to see how I am after the next shot. Glad that that effect went away for you, or is it still there a bit? Diet makes little difference for me, I eat a mostly vegan diet and get lots of exercise. It is all a bit much really, but we need to keep trudging on, LOL

@backhand To answer yr question about my LDL, I have had the first test (after the first Leqvio shot) and I had gone from 160 to 100. My diet seems to have no effect on the number. I eat the true Mediterranean diet, not the silly inaccuracies in the America medical establishment’s version that they call the Mediterranean diet.

Please explain to me why this Mediterranean diet from America wants us to eliminate pasta (mainstay in Italy) and ham (mainstay in Spain) and white bread (mainstay in France). And yet they claim (using life span and medical data from Italy, Spain and France) that Americans would become healthier and live longer, like people in Mediterranean countries if they ate the fictional version of the Mediterranean diet created by American medical folks. Hiw do they profit from such inaccuracies?

Reminds me of new book by Didier Raoult about fictions around the Covid disasters. Came out this week. “La Société du Factice”. It’s about fictions in contemporary medicine,
