[QUOTE="pau1200, post: 2041617, member: 505394"] I didn’t even see the Dr just the diabetic nurse, the prescription had already been written for me. She explained that my cholesterol was high and it’s normal to take a statin with diabetes medication. I asked what it is supposed to do and was told that it reduces my risk of CVD and stroke and as my diabetes is not under control I am a higher risk. We talked about my work and I explained I spend alot of time driving around the country and I don’t want to take any medication that could to become drowsy etc. She only mentioned nausea, excess gas and diarrhoea but said they clear quickly. I will read the other treads for information, my head is spinning a little with everything that is going on, suffering from insomnia since changing to low carb which I guess is a side affect of changing my blood sugar. Thanks again for your comments [/QUOTE]
