Hi Follow up. My pharmacist said Jardiance could be causing my high glucose and A1C readings.
Now on to meeting with an endocrinologist to see what they think. My cardiologist doesn't want me to stop taking it .It is expensive and if it is messing with my metabolism that concerns me.

@packh1 , I’m trying to figure out why anyone would suspect Jardiance would cause increased blood sugar. Did they say why? Hopefully, the endocrinologist can evaluate your situation. I hope they can evaluate to confirm the cause of the high blood sugar…..is your body producing enough insulin or is your body not utilizing what it has? If you’re not producing enough insulin, then the Jardiance wouldn’t help much. Insulin is the primary thing to lower blood sugar, besides some GLP1 meds. I’ll look forward to seeing what you discover.
