I have been experiencing higher than normal morning blood sugars since I have been put on the 10mg Pravastatin. I see from the leaflet that it can raise your sugars but my doctor says he isn't that concerned because the benefits outweigh the slightly higher blood sugar readings.

My typical morning rating has gone up to around 7 from around 6, but my cholesterol has come down from 6.2 to 4 so perhaps he is right. Just be good to get the thoughts and experiences of others.

I am also looking at taking cinnamon tablets as I read they can help with control, is there any other supplements out there that people have used?

I have not tried cinnamon, but have read lots of reports of this and it sounds good. What are you eating now..are you controlling your diabetes with diet ?

 

[dwelldon]

I am controlling it with diet, just concerned really that my last blood test went up from 49 to 53.

I am willing to give most things a go, it's all about see what works for each person
