[QUOTE="Evie-D, post: 2203190, member: 505837"] My Dr phoned me to congratulate me on getting my hba1c down to 39, then offered me a statin as my total cholesterol was 6.6. It’s always been in this range. I said that as far as I’m aware it’s the ratio that was more important and he agreed that while a little high was lower than the threshold they would normally offer a statin at. He said “ you’re not interested in a statin are you”. I said that since there was no history of heart disease in my family, and as I hadn’t had any issues there then no. I’m comfortable with this.
