Positive Jardiance Experience

Updated

I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes on 5 Jan 2017,when my blood glucose was 718, with a HgbA1C of 9. So began my journey on Regular insulin and Lantus, with a drastic change in diet and a script for Metabolic Surgery(the new gold standard for the treatment of diabetics that are morbidly obese) I was switched to metformin which caused major gastric problems, then went to Januvia with glimepiride, then advanced to Jardiance 25mg with glimepiride 4mg twice a day. I have changed my diet and started exercising 3-4 times a week. I have lost 45 lbs and have had to cut the glimepiride out. So presently I am taking the Jardiance daily in the am and my A1C is down to 5.4 and my average blood sugar is in the low 100's. I have had one UTI, and the weight loss as side effects from the Jardiance. So can't complain. All my doctors are happy with my progress, post-op gastric sleeve, I am told that I will no longer need the Jardiance and most if not all the rest of the meds I am taking for other disease processes I posses because of my weight. I attribute the turn around in my condition to diet, exercise, and the Jardiance as it gave me the push in the right direction. Good luck and I hope your experiences with Jardiance are as positive as mine has been.
