I have reached 50 years since diagnosis now aged 60
No complications other than background retinopathy and long term back pain - on pregabalin for that.
Cholesterol levels have been creeping up slowly around 5 but not dangerously high and blood pressure always ok.
Not sure what to do as don’t like the idea of having to take another tablet. I know statistics are all for statins and we are at greater risk of circulation problems. Any advice out there would be appreciated.
