She seemed very nice and did seem to be sympathetic to my worries over my hypothyroidism but seemed to want to keep the TSH is king theory and how they can tell eveything they

Dapagliflozin
hello, I found out in august last year that I’m type 2 diabetic. I went for an appointment to see the nurse and she put me on Dapagliflozin which I have to take one a day. But the last week, I’ve noticed my back aching and I cannot sleep because of it. Does anyone else have this problem?

A question for the diabetics among us.
What medicines are you on? I've been taking Metformin for most of my diabetic life. 1000mg 2x a day. I recently changed to Jardiance 5mg and glipizide 5 mg a day. I've been on that regimen for 5 weeks. My A1C went from 6.6 in Oct to 7,7 last week. I'm thinking i need more medicine. My eating

A few people have asked about Dapagliflozin. I found this long but very enlightening article that has reassured me quite a lot. https://utswmed.org/medblog/sglt2-inhibitors-heart-failure-diabetes/

Low AMH and Metformin (insulin resistance)
Hi all I know Metformin is often used in fertility for people who have PCOS, therefore with a high ovarian reserve. I have had an insulin resistance test recently which showed elevated levels, it has been suggested I take Metformin for it. I have low AMH though and am a little worried about whether

Prediabetic and trying to find the right foods to eat
Hi, I'm a prediabetic and I'm still learning what is ok and not ok to eat. My doctor had me on metformin but I stopped taking it 3 days ago. The last two days that I did take it I became really weak and almost passed out. So that's why I had stopped taking it. I'm hoping to get some helpful tips on

Dapagliflozin - fatigue and a “winded feeling”
Hi all, I’ve recently started taking dapagliflozin again after experiencing some chest pain and a recommendation from the hospital to stop at the time. I contacted my cardiologist and he advised me to restart it but to try starting the ivabradine first and reintroduce the dapagliflozin 2 weeks later

More med questions
I've been on Jardiance for about 2 weeks now. My fasting blood sugars have gone up about 30 points since. I am also taking 5mg of glipizide. I've always had good control of my diabetes, A1C has always been around 6, give or take a couple either way. I had been on Metformin prior to this. I had labs

Dapagliflozin (forxiga)
Is anyone else taking this drug for heart failure ? I have ‘severe’ heart failure and already take Ramipril and Carvedilol and have now had this diabetes drug added to the mixture. If it works it is said to be very effective in improving things. I would love to have your opinions. Also do you have

Pcos with regular but very light periods?
Hi all, I have lean pcos and was diagnosed via ultrasound after coming off the pill a year ago and not having a period. I had elevated testosterone levels on a blood test but everything else was fine (I have no unwanted hair growth). I started very lightly spotting a month ago and to the day I'm now

Questions about Montelukast and Metformin
I tried to find the answers by searching meds that aggrevate RLS but couldn't find an answer. Do the above cause any RL problems? I am trying to be so careful about anything, over the counter or prescription, that I take now. I will have a full blood panel (ferritin) checked for first time on Monday
