So is the empagliflozin causing your heart to race/beat quickly?It works though its brought my
BS down far more than anything else. Weight came down madly at first. I think i went drastically keto and made myself ill for a frw dsys but its levelled out to about a pound to two pound a week which has been good . i am anxious about my bloods and my heart when i go back. My testings for sugar are good but unsure their tests will be equal. The cholestral I dont test and think due to fatty things like cheese cream etc cant all be good fats. Or can they?
I’ve started Empagliflozin and my heart races which is why I am scared of salt.
As a child a lady called Mrs. Robinson died. I used to sneak the salt celler to her in bed when mum cooked her meals. Her husbsnd told me it would kill her as i was naughty giving it to her. i felt sorry for her and she was kind . However when she died for years i felt i was her killer. I was about seven then. So salt is in my brain as bad.
i do get lots of cramps but more so on this tablet.
However those and thirst are all this one does so I can live with it if it doing my sugars good too.
I am going to try electrolyte drinks to see if it helps the thirst plus the cramp.
i wonder what i will die of ?
We do all this n who knows.
ah well we gave to live until it happens
Poor Mrs Robinson - that must have been somewhat traumatic for you considering you were only seven!
Hope the electrolyte drinks help with the cramp - cramp is horrible!
I try not to worry about dying or how - life is for living, we can't sit around waiting for it!! 😉
