I have diabetes type 2 and since I was put on empagluflizin my feet have got really swollen to point its hard to find shoes that fit. Has anyone else had this experience with empagluflozin and how was it resolved. Would try anything to have normal feet and ankles again!! Desperate!!!

Have you tried talking to the dispensing chemist - they may be able to recommend something better - they are generally more aware of interactions and side-effects than GPs
