Comparing Jardiance vs Trulicity

For Diabetes, Type 2 I've been using Jardiance for a year now. I suppose I should say I used it for a year, but I'm also no longer taking it. initially I had no problems and it did seem to reduce my blood sugars (tho not substantially), Since December I have had an insane amount of back and hip pain/uti/yeast infections that have rendered my life miserable. I've had very dry mouth/dehydration feelings since the beginning. Three days off the meds and my hip pain is gone, I no longer have dry mouth and my blood sugars are staying where they've been the benefit has not outweighed the enduring that misery. Listen to your body!

For Diabetes, Type 2 Ok. Lost a little weight over the two months. But experienced lightheadedness, fatigue, irritability and shakiness.

For Diabetes, Type 2 My A1C was 10+ and now according to docs is "right about where we want to see it" at 6.4 but let me tell you.... this stuff says it may help you lose weight? I know exactly where my weight has gone - down the toilet. My injections, I do on Mondays. This week all day/night Monday, horrible gas, bloating and abdominal pain. Tuesday/Wed a little better. Thurs omg... I ate spaghetti last night and was in the bathroom most of the day today with 100% water coming out. Honestly, the side effects for me are starting to be not worth it. I plan to do next week's injection and if any similar issues, I think I'm done.

For Diabetes, Type 2 I had every side effect - some worse than others but the worst of them was the appetite suppression. I ate virtually nothing for four weeks, went through ketosis and finally into gluconeogenesis. Losing weight as a side effect is no bad thing but not when it mimics a wasting disease. I have lost, on average, 1lb in weight a day for the time I was on this drug. Constipation, stomach cramps, nausea, fatigue and not wanting to eat a thing eventually drove me to seek an alternative. It did bring my blood sugar down but the side effects have been horrendous. I'm pretty sure a carb free diet would have had much the same effects
