Blood ketone meter anyone?

I was on sglt-2 inhibitors the first time I had it, but not the second and third. I was only on metformin and trulicity. I’ve now been put on insulin after this last episode. My consultant called me weird and another dr said I was a unicorn as I was so rare.

I know it’s not normal to get eudka with a keto diet. I think the keto diet is the way forward. It makes sense to me.

My understanding is EuDKA is a known issue and warning for the Forxiga/Flozin classes of drugs these days, so for those taking SGLT-2 Inhibitors, reduced carb and/or keto diets need to be embraced with caution and adequate monitoring.

You've had a tough time, but I think that context is crucial for anyone trying to understand your scenario and also EuDKA in general terms. Thank you for clarifying.
