So I am a type 2 diabetic taking Invokamet (Metformin+Canagliflozin). I like to have a drink or two with dinner here and there. ive notied though, that if I am drinking beer I get nauseous 2-3 hours after, but not after wine or liquor. Has anyone else seen side effects such as this?
I'm male, age 47, 5 foot 8, weigh about 250 pounds. Ever since going on insulin two years ago I've had a hell of a time losing weight. I also have degenerative disc disease and osteoarthritis of the spine which makes exercising difficult, but I am walking for 15 minutes every day after work, and wor
I'm wondering if anyone has started this med and could tell me how they feel about it. I'm a type 1 and it was offered to me to help lose weight. I'm just unsure of how it will change my BG, if I'll be having lots of hypos and if it really will help me lose weight. Any input would be great to hear.

As a man you will end up with a spicy weiner when you pee. I am an extremely spicy eater but I thought I'd share this uncomfortable side effect for all of

60yr SW 95kg GW 70kg After 5 months I’ve achieved my goal weight. I’ve not been this weight since a teenager. Tried every diet over the years but only had temporary success. Always struggled with food noise. Retired early as a GP in the UK due to MH in 2022. Turned 60 earlier this year & finall
I'm just curious. The more I experience this pain and weakness the more I realize this is what sleep deprivation is. Without proper restorative sleep you get the exact same symptoms. Poorer sleep leads to a disruption in hormonal levels which makes sense why this affects more women then men. They
I just finished reading an *excellent* series of blog posts about how the fear of insulin is mostly bullshit. I wanted to understand the articles better, and contribute to fittit, so I went through each article and summarized them the best as I could in layman terms. All of them are worth a read, an
