[QUOTE="etmsreec, post: 147974, member: 22426"] [b]Re: statins[/b] I'm at a bit of a loss here. It has been suggested a couple of times that I might do well to take statins, though my cholesterol level is normal. Since I'm on enough medication anyway (gluten-free diet, Novorapid and Levemir, sulfamethoxypyridazine) it seems silly to take more medication if I really don't need it. What's got me at more of a loss though is this: where the heck did the statin revolution come from? Ten years ago I was totally unaware of them. Now it seems everybody should be on them for healthy living! Do these things really have a sensible place in diabetes care or are they just the New New Thing to keep the pharma companies going?
