[QUOTE="Deleted Account, post: 1832503"] I have been asked about statins and was told everyone with diabetes, over 40 is recommended to take statins. However, this is based on evidence from a sample of people who do not exercise. There has been no study for someone with diabetes who is fit and active. As I exercise a lot, my consultant hinted (I think she felt should could not directly advise as it was contrary to NICE recommendations) it may not be necessary for me. [/QUOTE]
