I have been on Dapagliflozin 10mg one a day for a year along with 2 Metformin twice daily, I dont test my blood. I went on holiday ( Scotland) for two weeks, and forgot my Dapagliflozin but had my Metformin with me that I've been taking since I was diagnosed 9 years ago, so wasn't worried. While on holiday I went overboard drinking pints of Guinness, with no problem. A month later ( Back on the Dapagliflozin) I was at my daughters at a barbeque, where I had a 1 cheese burger and 2 chicken skewers and four cans of Guinness, I went to bed approximately 10 pm.
Fast forward to half 4 on a Sunday morning with me being 'woken' by an Ambulance crew who stated " I had had a "seizure". When I got to hospital I had the usual tests along with a head scan. After a sandwich and cup of tea I perked up, and was allowed home after lunch time having been told by the doctor I couldn't drive for 6 weeks . I then received a phone call 13 days later from a Neuro Surgeon, Stating I'd had a seizure and I wasn't to drive for 6 Months. I told him I was type 2 diabetic and what I'd had to eat and drink, but he wasn't interested, and said I would get a letter detailing everything. 10 days later I received the letter stating it was a Witnessed Collapse ( I was in bed) and was a Tonic-Clonic episode. I got in touch with my Doctor and said there were some discrepancies with regard to the letter and wanted a second opinion, and was given a date 5 months from then for a phone call.
I then Googled my symptoms and Dapagliflozin and believe it was a Hypo Seizure I had been brought on by low blood sugar . Then 4 months after my first I had another, once again on a Sunday morning being woken by a First Responder and Ambulance crew. When I got to Hospital I told the Doctor what I'd had to eat the day before and said that " Thought it was a Hypo brought on by not having a lot to eat the day before as its the same symptoms" She wasn't interested because of the original diagnosis.
I have my review phone call tomorrow wish me luck and google Dapagliflozin.
