Hi trophywench. Oh wow. My GP tried to do that with me, she tried to tell me that I had high cholesterol and she wanted to put me on a statin. Statins are evil!!!! They nearly killed my mother!! I will not take statins if I can manage it. I told her under no circumstances, No. I had to get a repeat prescription of Ramipril and she wanted to give me diabetes tablets (she didn't mention which ones but my guess is Metformin) and then a statin for cholesterol. No thanks. I'll take my chance with diet and exercise, but like everyone else on here, I am struggling to find out what I can/cannotElle - they didn't, perchance, prescribe you with Statins at the same time as telling you that you had Diabetes, did they?
should/should not eat.
