[QUOTE="LittleGreyCat, post: 2451113, member: 6467"] I was diagnosed in 2008 and was prescribed statins and low dose aspirin because T2s had the same risk of heart attack as non-diabetics who had already had one heart attack. Some time later this fell out of fashion when people realised that the risks were similar but the causes were different so there was no point in treating T2s as if they had already had a heart attack. I haven't taken aspirin for a long time and don't take statins because of side effects. [/QUOTE]
