hi all
Fairly new to this , I am on Metaformin tabs and low carb diet essentially . Recently had issues with passing urine frequently , and tingerling at the end quite uncomfortable. Also my urine smells very distinctive ! I don't have a blood glucose machine and haven't a clue as to my blood sugar levels but am wondering if I have got sugar in my urine which is causing the unpleasant experience . I drink as much water as I can , glass full first thing and throughout the day . I used to get cystitis but never needed antibiotics so haven't been to Drs . I have been rather bad recently with chocolate from Xmas but intend to stop . Bit concerned I am ketoxic ? What is your advice or has anyone else experienced this . Due for blood test soon as well , been 3 months since diagnosed.
Thank you for reading
