[QUOTE="KTNIC, post: 2168618, member: 497535"] Have had my 3 month review today and so pleased my hard work has paid off! Weight 12 months ago , 12st 2lb, now 11st. BMI spot in! BP, spot on, HCL 52 12 months ago now 39. No meds. Liver function ok. Diet alone. BUT, because my cholesterol is still not what they want it to be, gone from 7.5 to 6.5, lipid being 4.7, they want me on statins which I have tried to resist. The Qrisk score is 18. I did it myself at home didn’t tick diabetes and got 11.9. Their attitude seems to be your stuck with it take statins! Asked about family history. Mum had high bop and didn’t have stroke until she was in her early 70’s and lived till she was 92, cause of death dementia. Thoughts from the man, woman in the street [/QUOTE]
