Yes the Dr was surprised also said he had never see it that low so he changed my syatin to 40 MG half of the 80 i was taking. Probally in a couple of months at my yearly I'll see how the numbers look then. That Repatha does seem to work well.

1 Reaction@danab maybe mine won't go that low because I have FH and elevated LP (@) . Do you have either of those ?
@19281928 years ago I did I've been taking a stating for 40 years give or take. Not sure about family but strokes run on my mother's side. They never talked much about it back then. I don't think most doctors back in the 50 and 60s really
Thought about it much.
But yes at one point I was over 100 on LD and my total was over 200. But since transplant they really want it below 55 so 19 really
Surprised my doctors also.
@danab so true , not a lot was known years ago. I'm glad you got yours lower . Best of luck to you

1 ReactionWell, I thought I was doing well after my second injection of Leqvio with just a headache a few days. But now I have pneumonia. I’ll see what my Dr. says next week…

1 ReactionThose numbers are tooo low! My LDL is 50 and I take 1/2 a 10 mg Atorvastatin every other day. Your liver makes cholesterol while you sleep.
Extremely low LDL cholesterol is often safe and can reduce cardiovascular risk, but very low levels may sometimes signal genetic, metabolic, or nutritional issues. Consultation with a healthcare provider is essential to determine the cause and ensure overall health is maintained.

2 Reactions@lenmayo yes when my doctors saw it they reduced my atrovastatin to 40 from 80. They were shooting for under 55 so it surprised them also.
@19281928 yes surprise Dr's also they lowered my statin in half since that's too low.
