I Am A Type Two Diabetic, Taking Metformin 1000, A

I am a type two diabetic, taking metformin 1000, a statin , and a low dose BP. med. My nurse practitioner recently started me on niacin, 2000 per day. My BP. has jumped from 120/70 to 143/89, and I have read that niacin might cause stroke. Would this be a possibility?
