[QUOTE="lessci, post: 2168682, member: 74756"] They can prescribe them, but they can't force you to take them...........I'm personally ambivalent, I have familial hypercholestrolimia (try saying that after a couple of shandies) My grandad died at 62 due to side effects of this, my Dad is still here, fit and healthy at 74 having been on statins for many years, but I do think some GP's hand them out like sweeties and just being Diabetic shouldn't mean you automatically take them. Do your research and come to your own conclusions [/QUOTE]
