I started repatha injections 6 weeks ago and just got the results from my first bloodwork since starting. My cardiologist just called me and told me my numbers were fantastic and that my bad cholesterol was at .7

Hi..I was put on Repatha 3 months ago and recently had blood work done. My results were very good. No side effects.

I will be starting..I have tried statins and they have not lowered cholesterol to where the doctor wants it. I have inherited high cholosteral so repatha jab once every 2 weeks has been recommended. I will know if it helps after 2 months when I go for blood work. Will post on this sight for results.

I have been on it for about a year now and my numbers have been going down.
I have not had any side effects that I know of.
I tend to get muscle cramps a lot before I took it.
Found out Magnesium helps with them and Biofreeze helps when it happens.
