I have extremely elevated Lp(a) at 589nmol/L. With Repatha onboard, it went down to 369nmol/L-not normal, but better than being in the 99th percentile. of course, I am also on a statin and ezetimibe! No side effects from repatha-some myalgia with statin if I have a glass or two of wine, substantiated by above normal CK

@mariereine Glad to hear it went down significantly, and didn’t give you side effects. Praying for the appproval of the meds in third phase trials that can lower lp(a) so much more. Hopefully we will have something by 2027!
