[QUOTE="Daphne917, post: 1710135, member: 124172"] [USER=341078]@Jan_P[/USER] ultimately it is your decision whether you take statins or not. I did when first diagnosed and my BS increased and I suffered other side efffects. When I came off them my hba1c came down and has been in the mid 30s for the past 4 years. I have the statins discussion with my DN at every review but still decline the offer! They even tried to put my husband on them when it clearly stated on the information leaflet not to take with some of the drugs he’s already on. [/QUOTE]
