Also once you have been diagnosed Type 2 you will always "fail" the Q-Risk score as being diagnosed adds I think 7-8% onto your score even if your HbA1c is below Type 2 levels (there is nowhere to put your HbA1c).
And probably know very little about the mechanisms of cholesterol...
And don't forget, your Q risk score goes up every birthday! Once you get to 70 you have no chance! Mine will go up by 1.4% next birthday.
My score comes down by almost half if I take diabetes out of the equation, and the smoking bit makes less difference than the diabetes.
Post codes also make a difference.
