I'm on statins for high cholesterol, reading on the day I was diagnosed was 10mmol/l while my BP was 120/80, HbA1c was 11.7%. I always thought that high cholesterol meant high BP too. Now I'm confused.

My cholesterol is low - lowest was 2.4! But my BP has generally always been high, even pre-diabetes.
