I had been on Praluent but got severe muscle pain to the point I was using a walker and rollater. I have dc’d it c 3 weeks but hear it to get out of my system. My life has become SO negatively changed by the pain. Before taking this drug, I had heart bypass surgery and went through rehab feeling phenomenal!! I now cannot do cardio, walk or stand for any length of time. As a retired RN, and 8 year Cuddler in the NICU, I have been rolled out in a wheelchair the last time I was able to walk into the hospital to help these babies. All this to say, I pray for ways to get this out of my system and will never take another lipid lowering medication. Any suggestions are appreciated, thank you!😎❤️❤️

@lgreenrn That was one of the meds my cardio doc wanted to take but my copay was like $350. and in the back of my mind why take the chance, so I told her I can't afford it.
I am glad I did not. Thank you for sharing.
