or will your blood sugar will always be high?
I have been taking crestor for 2 years with good results but i have recently developed type 2 diabetes and it is not in my family on either side. I feel i can tribute the diabetes to a medicine and/or medicines i take
I'm type II and take crestor as well and it shouldn't affect your blood sugars at all. With diabetes, the risk of heart attacks, strokes is greater and so to stop the crestor, especially before talking to your endocrinologist can be risky.

I think the better for all of us is we get better medication to help us. In the years past medications didn't harm anyone, they helped us. What is going on with our country, I’m confused already.
Sorry to say, but it's a well known that crestor does raise sugar levels and creates a insuline resistant syndrome. Just talk to your GP and look it up! it's world news !!! Your Cholesterol , if it's not too high can be less important problem than diabetes. High cholesterol can be controlled with other means.
Type 2 is more related to other things, not if your family has it. It used to be related to age, with older people getting it, but lately even kids are getting it. Weight is a big factor. Don't deny it or brush it off as med related, treat it appropriately. Its a real concern if your blood sugar isn't coming down. While crestor can raise your A1c once its out of your system it should come down. How long have you been off of it? Are you taking any other medications?
The truth is some blood pressure medications and Statin can cause hyperglycemia. I think it is really sad our country is playing mind games with our health. Be truthful about what causes diabetes. It's sad that everyone now a days is a diabetic and has high blood pressure, doesn't that tell us all something is wrong somehow. I thought Crestor was a bette statin than the others. What is really going on here America? What are you doing to you're people.
