[QUOTE="HSSS, post: 2661085, member: 480869"] Surely it was the dapagliflozin that caused the uti not the extra carbs though? The issue with sglt2 and low carb or keto isn’t going low on blood glucose but going higher on ketones and having a dka without the typical high blood glucose which is often an early warning sign. Obviously it doesn’t happen to everyone but for those that do have this side effect everything is fine, til it isn’t. If you want to stick with keto I’d chat with your DN and make sure you have ketone testing ability at the very least, particularly if you are sick in anyway at all. Possibly there are other medications that are better suited to you if you’re sticking with keto. Do you still even need it at all? [/QUOTE]
