I had my initial dose of Leqvio about 3 weeks ago. I initially had severe limb pain,arms,legs,hands. I continue with that but am now having severe muscle spasms (charley horse) of limbs. My finger will even lock up and I have to physically,forcefully bend them. These are horribly painful. Has anyone else experienced this? I dread the thought of another injection and greater pain. My cholesterol is extremely high so I need to try and push through. Any experiences much appreciated. Thank you

Many years ago I was having severe cramps and spasms of the lower back as well as fingers locking up. I was treated with all the standards Valium, Robaxin, Flexeril Meprobamate etc. The doctor then put me on Parafon Forte and Paraflex (chloroxone) and the relief was amazing. No high, CNS depression. I was able to function and do my duties as a navy hospital corpsman. It seems this drug is forgotten.
