Type of diabetes
Type 2
Treatment type
Non-insulin injectable medication (incretin mimetics)
4 weeks in, on very low carb, e.g. less than 20 and as low as 5 g per day, tiny weight loss and bs at 13. on my meter. I do keep trying with it.
I'm going on empaglioflozin as of Friday, got to get that bs down.
I don't know if 4 weeks is too early to see any movement, but 6 yrs of diabetes and no matter what I try I have to give this newish drug a try.
