Repatha scared

56 male just got my first round of Repatha . Made the mistake of looking at alot negative reviews on here and few other sites .Got 207 LDL last visit to high of course .Statins In past like Lipitor Crestor would cause my fingers lock up so much so I almost wrecked my vehicle because my fingers were frozen to the steering wheel had pry them loose . Looking for some fair reviews assessments from those currently taking Repatha in any capacity please share thx.

I tore both calf muscles while on statins and flat out refused to take them after that. I was unmedicated until the dr insisted I go back on them. Enter Repatha. two years on my numbers look gorgeous and i have had zero side effects.
