Are you saying that preventative medicine is a bad idea? I seem to remember you posting a few months ago that 'everyone' should take a vitamin D supplement, double standards or just that some things fit in with your view of things and others dont?

As diabetics we are twice as likely to have a heart attack or stroke and heart disease is the biggest killer of diabetics, personally I wouldn't like to advise anyone not to take statins and believe that is a decision needed to be taken between the individual and their HCP's, it sends a shiver down my spine to think that someone is persuaded not to take a statin by the scaremongering on Internet forums and a few years down the line suffer the terrible consequences of a heart attack or stroke, these are peoples lives we are talking about and we should always keep this in mind.
Many people take statins without problems and have found a big difference in their cholesterol so to say they dont work is nonsense, you may not want to take them but they are a lifeline to many others.
I am fortunate that my cholesterol has always been around the 4 mark every time I have been tested but if it had been 6 or 7 I think I would have accepted a statin if advised to do so.

Statins are certainly getting some good press of late, I was reading an article yesterday that said many GP's take statins themselves.
SarahQ a balanced diet is a large fruit cake in each hand, one for each mouth in the two faced pumper.
Saying how it is!

"The Something MUST be Done!!!!
Not what you lot think needs to be Done!
Which seems to be, replace the currant mantra with your own mantra and lob meter/test trips at everyone.. Which is yet another blanket one glove fits all mantra!"

I love Jopar and Nobhead, they look more stupid with every post. Guess what, Jopar has a pump, how many times as she told us. It clearly defines her life and who she is, a great shame. As for Nobhead, a light weight shit stirrer that runs for cover after posting dross. Carbo's cesspit is a safe haven for these chumps.
