[QUOTE="Daphne917, post: 719594, member: 124172"] I was controlling my diabetes with diet and my hba1c was 5.8 from an initial diagnosis level of 6.8. I was then prescribed Pravostatin and my hba1c went up to 7.2. After a few months I came off the statin after a few months due to having dizzy spells and not sleeping and my hba1c is now 42 and my cholesterol is down to 4.2 (LDL=2.3). If it was suggested that I go back onto statins I will probably refuse. [/QUOTE]
