    My daughter was diagnosed with FH at 8 years old ! Her father had it and died at 31 years old ;( She was put on pravastatin but that caused her to get pancreatitis , so then was put on Repatha and then had really bad side effects like hives , stomach pains ,muscle aches, has been on rosuvastatin and Ezetimibe for 5 years now with no side effects ,they have lowered her numbers but not enough ! Not where her Dr wants it to be ,so now she has just started her first injection of inclisiran . So with Gods Will Inclisiran will be the one for her ! 🙏🙂

    What if you have both high trig's and low HDL in addition to very high LDL?

    Are there any FH patients with zero CAC scores? If so, what is the treatment plans for those.

      How to distinguish FH versus LMHR - is there a test?

      You can get genetic testing to find out if you have it.❤
