[QUOTE="BarbaraG, post: 2681466, member: 47277"] A quick hopeful update…. average glucose (as measured by Libre Freestyle over past 7 days) has not risen any more since Saturday. OK - hasn’t gone down….. but also hasn’t gone up. Previously it had gone up every single day for the past 10 days. So maybe, maybe, it has found its peak and will eventually start declining. It’s also become evident that my weight loss, which was proceeding steadily, has also slowed to a glacial crawl, since much the same time point, i.e. when I should have had a dose of Trulicity but didn’t. Since stopping Trulicity commonly results in some weight (re)gain, even holding steady is good! I’ve also noted the comment from HSSS about the risk of DKA with flozins and low carb diet. I’m not keto…. I don’t generally log my food, but on days when I have totted up, it’s in the range of 50-100g carb most days. Still, another reason not to take the stuff if I can avoid it. [/QUOTE]
