Hi everyone!
I'm new to the forum so just thought I'd say hello.
I've been a diabetic for 4 years now although I'd say I had been diabetic for longer but drs wouldn't take me seriously.
I'm taking Metformin and Dapagliflozin, which I say is my magic pill. I'm also a sever asthma suffer so I'm not able to be as active as I'd like. This magic drug has not only brought down my blood sugars from 17.3 to around 7.6 I have also lost 13.5 stone in weight. Yes I had it to loose but before I went onto Dapagliflozin I wasn't loosing anything. The diabetic nurse says there several people on the same drug who also have lost some weight.
My sugars are good, my weight has dropped now all I need is a new wardrobe!!
