[QUOTE="carina62, post: 1627886, member: 25670"] Thank you to all of you who have taken time to respond. I am seeing my diabetic nurse next week and I will talk to her about my ambition to cut down on my medication. My GP was ready to increase my statins when my cholesterol had recently gone up but with my weight loss and watching my diet, I have managed to get the cholesterol down so I know that I don't have to resort to medication but doctors I think just find it easier to keep prescribing. I will check out the attitude of the nurse next week to see if I get a negative vibe from her about it or encouragement. I realise I do need to work with my doctor/nurse but I will need their positive support and not a negative one otherwise I will consider changing doctors. [/QUOTE]
