Message: <blockquote data-quote="Rutho" data-source="post: 1632342" data-attributes="member: 456138">HiI was diagnosed with type2 diabetes just over 3 months ago. I have high cholesterol but I was given 3 months to try and get it down. I got it lowered slightly but I think my doctor is thinking of putting me on a statin and the website “my diabetes my way” suggests that even if your cholesterol is normal, if you are over 40 and have type 2 it’s generally thought that it’s a good idea to put you on statins anyway! Anyone have any ideas about this as I’ve heard statins aren’t that great for you?</blockquote>
