[QUOTE="NicoleC1971, post: 2193490, member: 365308"] As far as I am aware ketoacidosis does not happen as a side effect of an sglt 2 inhibitor nor with low insulin and low bgs. You would be more at risk for a urinary tract infection because of peeing out excess sugar. Urine test strips just show that you are peeing out glucose (good) and the ketones are just what your body is not using so as you become better adapted they will go down in any case. If you feel you've jumped off the deep end into keto you could ease back a little and probably still get great results with weight loss and blood glucose levels. If you carry on and still feel rubbish after 6 weeks then I'd say this may not be for you (6 weeks is the amount of time it is reckoned to take to get into nutritional ketosis fully). A word of warning, diab nurses can get panicky if you mention ketones in your urine but you do not have keoacidosis from what you've said. [/QUOTE]
