First AMRN purchase was for 500 shares in 2010 and first iHub post is today. I’ve been following this board and yahoo since about that time, started posting on ST (DTG) in 2015. I’m not a Dr, Lawyer, Pharmacist or have any real medical background or training. What I do have is is family history of high cholesterol and CAD and just over 66.4K shares of our wonderful AMRN. The insight of the board regulars are beyond both helpful and entertaining. It’s amaizng what we spin ourselves into when speculating on the unknown. I have a lot of thanks for the folks who volunteer their life’s experiences and their deep understanding of the science behind Vascepa.
My story starts with a 500 share purchase in 2010 on a tip from a buddy, not fully knowing what this was at the time. After a pretty big PPS swing from $6 to $17 and back, and after much, much DD with all the reading I could stand (patents, trials, etc) I decided to increase my position big time in 2013. That right folks, just before October 2013 we loaded up. Big time for me. Sold half of my Apple, all my Facebook and mostly everything else (and here’s where the first lesson of self investing was learned) and had myself 25K shares @ about $7 per. Needless to say adcom crushed me. Coming off losing big on a house in the 2008 fiasco, divorce, bad choice in a restaurant partner, I was looking to make up for all of it on this play. October 16, 2013 to Sept 24, 2018 was only survived by having the patience and conviction instilled in me by my father, who had five bypasses last year, to add thousands more shares when sub $1 and sub $2 to average down to $3 and change.
This board has been a part of my life for years and has quite a cast of characters. I’m thankful to all of you and glad to be a part of this journey. It’s not been easy but I’m beyond committed (friends would say obsessed). I’m reaching out today because after my first 90 days on V my trigs dropped from 463 to 336 and that’s with a salesman’s diet of wining and dining in NYC. I’m looking to take more steps and looking for a local cardiologist for consultation on my situation as related to my family conditions, if anyone can suggest one in or near NYC I would be very grateful. I had thought Cardio said he studied in the Bronx
