Hi Guys,
Just looking for a bit of advice I’m 26 yr old T1 – 4 years since dx.
My Dr is trying to put me on cholesterol lowering drugs as my level back in July 12’ was 7.1 and just last week was 6.7 (so drop of 0.4) My LDL was 2.8.
I am very opposed to going on drugs after reading up about them, plus surely this is happening 30 years too soon for me.
In your opinions do you think it is something to worry about?
It has dropped by 0.4 in 6 months without me doing anything in particular.
Isn’t it rubbish that we can’t gorge ourselves on mega sweet things as Diabetics and now my body is trying to stop me enjoying all those cholesterol burgers I so dearly love.
