Comment:
3 years after heart attack my cholesterol was still way to high. After 3 months of Repatha it is down to where it should be. Side effects are severe lower back pain and extreme fatigue, runny nose. I can barely sweep the flood or vacuum and even take a walk outside anymore. Not sure how much longer i can stay on it.

Comment:
I have been taking statins for 40 years, changed my diet drastically, had open heart surgery for clogged arteries and this is the only medicine that has reduced my LDL so dramatically.
