[QUOTE="taynith, post: 1875313, member: 489998"] I recently came off Glipizide to switch to Dapaglifloxin...I stopped taking the Glipizide intending to get the other prescription that day, but I didn't get around to it for two weeks. The very first day without Glipizide, I felt fantastic, my blood sugar dropped by about 30%, I started eating Keto and lost 6kgs in two weeks. Then I got the Dapaglifloxin. I've been on it for 4 weeks, following the same diet but haven't lost any more weight at all. I take probiotics etc to avoid thrush, but the constant peeing and thirst is horrible. I got so dehydrated and felt so awful I stopped taking it. The second day I had horrible kidney pain (I do have stones so could be that) by the end of the night my toes, ankles, abdomen and even the right side of my back near my kidney were swollen so much I felt I'd burst. So I've started taking it again, but I'm really not happy. I don't get to see the specialist who prescribed it for another cpl of months. My GP is a moron....like really, I don't know how he has a job. The Dapaglifloxin doesnt have much effect on my blood sugar. The best thing that has ever happened for my blood sugar is coming off Glipizide, also my constant hunger and other symptoms disappeared instantly. I take Metformin and have noticed a post on this site where someone got bleeding Gastritis from it...I have had constant, very, very low iron since I've been on it. The medications for type 2 all seem to be making me sicker. I'm sticking to the keto diet as its easy for me and I dont get hungry....I'm worried that the Dapaglifloxin will ruin my kidneys. I have had protein in my urine since I first got diagnosed years ago. Since Dapaglifloxin I have had pinkish urine and when I stopped for two days it went steel grey. Its pinkish to clear again now.
