[QUOTE="MillieT, post: 2401918, member: 462792"] Just to mention I had been on just Toujeo and the endicrinologist had said for me to restart metformin perhaps 10 days ago, so i collected that prescription and took one empagliflozin with my evening dose and meal which was over 70 grams of carbs and i immediately went into the start of DKA, my sugars were 15 and my ketones went to 0.7, by the morning they were 2.5 and my sugars still 15 but dropping, and lunchtime i started to fight against it and ate some more carbs and an awful lot of water and managed to get them down in 24 hrs. What i've noticed in this is that every single time my ketones go up, my bloods go down and vice versa, this time though when they were 2.5 i felt ready for my coffin only my head felt like it was going to explode literally and i could barely walk in a straight line.. so because of that i just didn't take anymore empagliflozin and waited the 4-5 days until the consulatant called again. After reading on here i suggested Bolus and he agreed so on another post i've mentioned what i've started on but the results so far aren't very good so far but is early days yet. Re C Peptide, I had mentioned that in this thread somewhere I believe and that was recent, from memory i think they were slightly elevated but nothing serious. Please see #18 "my CPeptide result is at 4.09 and my HBA1C is at 88" [/QUOTE]
