[QUOTE="TheBigNewt, post: 1479799, member: 380756"] Again, Type 1's are prone to "microvasular" complications (eyes, kidneys) whereas Type 2's are prone to "macrovascular" complications (coronary arteries, etc.) so I'm not aware of any scientific data says Type 1's do better with routine statins. The group that FOR SURE does better are people who have know coronary disease (heart attack, prior stent or bypass). People on this forum probably don't have that. Probably anyone with a really high cholesterol should benefit to some degree. [/QUOTE]
