[QUOTE="Rachox, post: 1585175, member: 400972"] My Diabetes story is similar to yours, diagnosed Type 2 in May and adopted a low carb diet. I’ve had two reviews since then, HbA1c down from 70 to 45 to 36, weight down by over 3 1/2 stone, but cholesterol levels deteriorated. I have resisted Statins to date, arguing side effects which don’t necessarily go if you stop them, dramatic weight loss and that they raise blood sugars. My GP respected my decision and said we’ll discuss it again at my next review in December! :bored: [/QUOTE]
