diabetes, type 2
"Was on Metformin 1000 / 2x day and 70 insulin Lantis. Started Invokana and immediately lost 5 lbs. After a few months on same dose, have lost about 15 lbs. 

Yes, I admit there are some side effects, such as frequent urination and some yeast issues. However, this is to be expected. Being on this medication, we are told we are to drink over 100 ounces of water every day. I agree and then some. Keeps things flowing, but this is the way it works. No GI issues from this med, however Metformin does cause some GI issues when skipping a dose or two. 

Remember, too, that this - or any- medication is not for everyone. We need to try different ones to find the one right for our body. I think I have found mine!"
