Good morning,
I hope everyone is well today?
I was wondering if anyone knew the normal range for cholesterol?
My diabetes nurse has phoned me this morning following some bloods earlier this week (for various things ) to let me know that my cholesterol is 6.6 and they would like me to start on tablets, I was wondering if this is very out of the range of normal or not?
I have started on Metformin for type two diabetes this week and will be starting with Jardiance in a few weeks , they also suspect I have a B12 deficiency ( still awaiting the results ) so possible treatment needed for that too, I would like to see if I really need the cholesterol tablets before I add another tablet to the list and if it is just over the normal range if it would be manageable by just adjusting my diet some more.
Does anyone have experience of doing this?
Obviously if it is much higher than normal range I will start the tablets .
Thanks in advance for your advice .
Enjoy your weekend!
