Hi Hi IanF0ster I appreciate your response, agreed that a raised blood sugar level usually happens when fighting an infection. I think it is why I Why i was shocked and a little frightened about how I felt. Ive had problems already with the medication and have only had about 3weeks on the...

...Blood Glucose, but I recall somebody saying that they got a drop in BG when ill. Other than that, to me it sound like either: A). Your empagliflozin dose may be too high. B). You worked harder than usual which made you use up your Blood Glucose faster than normal. C). You ate a smaller...

...from others who understand what its like living with type 2 diabetes. I've been diabetic Type 2 for about 8 years, ive recently started empagliflozin after being unable to tolerate side effects of victoza. Im also on metformin. Today I had a scare, my blood sugar dipped to 3.9. I felt awful...

...as it was in March, but the review was impressed by the value. Weight Lost - about 7 kg since June, aiming for 15kg by November. BG - yesterday morning was 5.8mmol/L Metformin: 1000mg in morning, and 1000mg in evening, (It has been at this level for about 2 years) Empagliflozin: 25mg in morning.

...worry about. Your bg levels are slightly high at 9-12 but would usually be much higher with keto acidosis (though some medications like empagliflozin can cause this with normal bgs). If you would prefer not to have ketones, increasing your carb intake and drinking more water would likely...

Amlodipine, Atorvastatin, Dulaglutide,Empagliflozin,Metformin SR

That sound like a good outcome and you can put the worry over it to the back of your mind for now and focus on the things you are doing which are being successful.

...things that the specialist spoke about , and she asked if I had any concerns and I kindly asked if I can do this without ozempic and Empagliflozin at least until 3-6 months to see if I could possibly do it then if I need help then I’ll go on it and she totally agreed with me and she said...

You don' seem to have had any explanation of what those medications are and how they work to enable you to make an informed decision about whether to agree to take or not. Hopefully somebody familiar with them will come along and be able to give you some info about them.

Yes that’s the one Thankyou lucyr . So to understand and try not to freak out what’s ozempic and Empagliflozin ?? All my nurse told me was trying to understand why I can’t do a paper thin needle even though it’s a once a week injection and that if I do it it goes straight through , then if I do...

Empagliflozin?

As I can't tolerate any of the general medications my doctor has put me on a new drug called Jardiance - empagliflozin. It seems to have a lot of nasty side effects. Has anyone else had experience of this medication.?

My only other allergy listed is empagliflozin, which is a diabetes drug that gave me ketoacidosis!

...not sure I follow what you mean here. 11 ish would be a level that you would normally spill glucose into urine yes, but the purpose of empagliflozin is to make you spill more glucose into your urine to lower blood sugars. It doesn’t make you bg above 11 to do this. It blocks the reabsorption...

Apologies about wrong info for Empagliflozin. That's even more concerning though @Lucyr - because glucose doesn't even spill out into urine until your BG is around 11.0 ! (if you have a normal renal threshold) - I mean that's one of the classic undiagnosed diabetes symptoms mums are told to...

Oh gosh! 80 is a bit high, especially if you have been diagnosed a long time, so it makes a bit of sense that she has increased your Empagliflozin dose. What sort of insulin doses are you using and which long acting insulin have you got? How frequently do you test your BG levels and what sort of...

Empagliflozin doesn’t cause your pancreas to produce more insulin it works by making you pee out extra sugar

I asked nurse she said I get all my patients to take after meal . So confusing the specialist team will look into my medication after all they are the specialists . I just find it unhelpfull that so many diabetic nurses do things so differently

Mmm - what @Lucyr said - but having increased the Empagliflozin which causes your pancreas to chuck out more of your own insulin though you can't control when or how much it will do that, perhaps she's merely wanting you to be careful ? I'm not an expert though! So - why not ask her to explain...

PS I am now having lady problems:/ treatment not worked , not good :/
