High LDL

Hi
I am new to the forum and having trouble with doctors in general. Currently I am spending over $200 for meds and still have a bad a1c. Setting aside diagnosis problems my ldl fluctuates with my a1c. @ 5.5 my ldl was 90 when my a1c creeped up to 7 my ldl was 103 @10.6 a1c ldl=119 Doc immediately perscibed zocor @ 103. I have and still refuse to take it for a few points. I am 37 my bmi is 25.6 wh ratio .88 6' 200# Am I wrong in not wanting to add chemicals to my system without merit. Do others see ldl changes with a1c?

I hate to not listen to my doctor but I hate drugs and spending $200 plus a month even more.

I am starting insulin tonight and going in for bloodwork next week to check for LADA vs type 2


Any others?
