Started Repatha - Side Effects

Posted by HomeAgainLA @llynch17056, Mar 21, 2024

I had terrible side effects with statins (any statin, any dosage). For about 30 years my doctors have pushed statins and
I have resisted. Finally I agreed to Repatha. The first week I had zero side effects. With my second dose, 2 weeks in, i woke up and my joints and muscles hurt a LOT.
1. Does this side effect go away?
2. What do you know about the recent information that the Repatha trials underreporting deaths from cardiac events while taking Repatha.

@valcie Both my parents had 4 heart attacks and bypass surgery. I am on this high LDL journey. I have side effects. I can only say this. My mother took all the pills and followed the doctors orders, my father felt bad on most of the meds and he stopped most of them. They died one week apart from each other in 2013. So, i wonder if any of it make one bit of difference?
