Hi @sparklebright628
That sounds very difficult for you.
What are your blood sugars like and what meds are you currently on? High blood sugars can make you urinate more and some meds can too...

Are you still on the empagliflozin?
This is a medication which makes you pee out sugar, and it makes you pee more.
The extra sugar in the urine can also increase the risk of UTI's.

So it's the empagliflozin which likely makes you pee so much.
The high BG won't help either, this makes you pee more as well.
I hope your BG will drop soon!

I’m on empaglaflozin and it hasn’t made me pee any more than usual. I don’t ever get up during the night.
