Message: <blockquote data-quote="bulkbiker" data-source="post: 1906369" data-attributes="member: 219467">Happy to take a look if you have them to hand...Unfortunately its part of the doctors diabetes handbook that we should all be taking statins.. This is partly because if we followed their dietary advice our HbA1c's would be increasing exponentially and Type 2 would be the chronic progressive disease they always claim it to be. However once you have started to take control and have significantly lowered your HbA1c they seem to forget that you would not be viewed as "diabetic" if you were to walk into the surgery... I have done quite a lot of digging and reading and watching into the murky world of the most profitable pharmaceuticals ever invented and have become slightly sceptical of the many claims made for them. Once you realise that in the early trials the people who responded badly to them were weeded out (pre trial selection) then you really do start to wonder who they benefit more .... shareholders or patients..I'll go get me tin foil hat!</blockquote>
