With the Dapigliflozin it may put you at higher risk of DKA.Happened to me (with Empagliflozin).Couldn't tell you what my Ketones were leading up to my DKA, as I didn't recognise it as DKA at the time. So didn't test. And they were off the scale to begin with at the hospital (just showed as HI).Sounds like you are doing the right thing though, monitoring. And being aware of the symptoms.Don't take any chances with it if you develop worse symptoms. But your nurse has already told you that.And, if it makes you feel any better. On previous occasions I've had ketones of 4+ in the past from low carb / calorie restriction combined with Empagliflozin and was fine, no DKA.</blockquote>
