Hi @Jillytee and congratulations on YOUR progress. I am not a Health Care Professional (HCP) so could not possibly advise you to take/not take statins. Do have a look at the manufacturers web site regarding the ones you have. It will tell you that one of the side effects is raised blood glucose. The advice to put Diabetics on statins comes from NICE, and no HCP dare ignore it.
Personally I have have the kind offer of statins at every consultation, and I treat it as just that, a consultation. My health is my responsibility, I consult and either take that advise or ignore it. The consequences either way are mine.
(I still dont take statins)
