Yes, in the last two years I went from being on no medications to being on 3! As someone who is now being treated for my stratosphere high cholesterol (I am slim and eat a healthy diet), I recommend trying to lower the cholesterol with diet first. (oatmeal, almonds, beans, lentils, eggplant, okra, tofu, apples, oranges)--all of these foods definitely lower cholesterol. Healthy oils like olive oil and canola. I was not able to tolerate statins. So, I now inject myself with Repatha twice a month. It works. However, if I just had borderline cholesterol, I'd try diet first. Realize with diabetes there are dietary restrictions.
I have a strong suspicion that Prolia pushed my cholesterol levels higher and altered the ratio of hdl:ldl. In any event, it had to be treated prior to being on Prolia and the ldl has dropped 50% on Repatha.
Sometimes diet, exercise and healthy living is not enough. I'm sure your endocrinologist will sort things out for you. Stay healthy.

I take medication for cholesterol and high BP. I also have osteoporosis which is painful mostly in wrists, fingers, ankles and knees. I am at crossroads of what to do about my pain.
I do know if one has high BP they need to take medication or you could end up in dialysis for the rest of your life as a good friend of mine has to. Two times per week and it takes the energy out of her until the next dialysis. Getting old is no fun.
