[QUOTE="Jennifer78, post: 1273071, member: 46489"] Hi all, Just found out from clinic I have a cholesterol level of 6.7. He says they've been monitoring it for a while but it's only come up as I'm approaching 40 and have had type 1 diabetes for 10 years. A healthy level is 5.5? He didn't offer any advice yet other than to say it can't really be fixed but I can try & not make it worse. My dad has always had bad cholesterol & has been on statins for many years. Anyone else have this problem? What should I do? I already eat a lot of oats, whole grain, fruit & veg. I'm overweight but not drastically. [emoji20] [/QUOTE]
