Comment:
Be very aware of the side effects. After 3 days I ended up in the hospital via ambulance in ICU. Never would have thought this drug would almost kill me. So be very careful and don't ignore side effects.

Started taking Jardiance on July 16th. My A1C was at 8.0. Eating junk most days, no exercise. I started a daily fast walk of about 2.5 miles, started eating better, and with the help of Jardiance, the pounds starting flying off. I've lost 25 pounds since then, and my A1C is down to 5.5. Couldn't recommend this more!

I started using Jardiance July 1, 2018 in addition to Glimeperide and Metformin ER. My A1C has been between 7.2 and 7.7 for the last 3 years. The goal was to get it down below 7. My A1C this week is 6.4 down from 7.2 in June. I have had no side effects and highly recommend this drug.

Cannot wait to see what my A1C looks next time I'm at the Dr. office. Future looking good at

Comment:
I was glad when I took up this option as I really didn't want to take up injections. It has definitely brought down my A1C but the side effects and overhead is overwhelming. Constantly drinking water(80-100 floz) to avoid yeast infections or UTI and still got affected. Eating portioned sizes to avoid ketones in blood stream. Joint pains moving from one joint to another.
