[QUOTE="Jc3131, post: 1674289, member: 411987"] Hello Jenny, I'm sort of in the same boat as you. My hba1c was 103 when I was diagnosed. Then it was 44 and the one just after Christmas was 41. I though I was doing well then I was told my cholesterol was high. It was 5.5, 2mmol good and 3.5 bad. I have the triglycerides result and I've posted it in the type 1 forum as I don't really understand it. They prescribed statins last week which I haven't collected as I don't want to take them. I saw my diabetes nurse yestersay and she said to have a think about the statins. I am still unsure as I want to reduce my cholesterol myself. I don't think I helped myself as I got a taste for peanut butter and I was eating loads of it every day and even eating straight from the jar. It's a hard decision to make regarding the statins and no doubt it's what they will offer you. [/QUOTE]
