[QUOTE="presidentholmes, post: 2144761, member: 511556"] Hi all, So diagnosed in May when my blood sugar was a crazy 113. It is now 46. Speaking to my Doctor yesterday about my cholesterol, in May it was 14.6!!! And today it is 6.6. So, a huge reduction thank goodness. Don’t know if this is due to getting my blood sugar right down, losing 21lbs, drinking 2 carb lowering yoghurt drinks every day since May, eating porridge most mornings or all working together. Anyway, all though it’s way lower, it is still too high, so he wants to put me on statins and I am reluctant. Does anyone have any good stories to tell about them? Any and all words of advice would be appreciated and also words on how to get it down more. Thanks all. [/QUOTE]
