@crbarefoot he has really high cholestetol and was getting both elevated liver enzymes and muscle pain with elevated CK. He is still on Zetia as well as the Repatha.

@cjval52 thank you!

@cjval52 My doc took me off statins, too. Nothing to do with not tolerating them. My A-lipoprotein numbers were not budging and Repatha, once a month injection, got my numbers down very low. I also take zetia. My cholesterol numbers were never high, usually 180 total, it’s the lipoprotein numbers that are so high. No side effects from the Repatha - but, dang, the injections are not pleasant 😂
