    I take Invokana in the morning, Medformin at dinner and Lantus at bedtime. BS levels are more stable now and do see increased urination and GI symptoms. Haven't had any weight loss yet which I thought was going to happen-not happy about that. It's only been a week since medication added.

    I really like how the Invokana has helped with my BS but I've noticed that I can eat all the time even though it was to help you lose weight! Anyone else have this problem?

    Since starting Invokana, my blood sugar readings are steadier and I do not have the big swings high or low. I feel better but do have to urinate more.

    I take one 100 mg tablet first thing in the morning. Blood sugar readings before meals are good. Morning fasting blood sugar readings are better than they have ever been since I was diagnosed 14+ years ago. I also take metformin, glimeperide, Lantus, and Bydureon. Invokana manufacturer provided a card which makes my co-payment $5 until March 2014.

    After the second day, I broke out in a reaction. I had hives from head to toe. Until now, I have not been allergic to anything. The doctor had to prescribe a steroid to offset the effects.
