This was very informative and I have not been put on any meds as of now. I will see my doctor on the 14th and I will tell him about my concerns. Thanks!

Thank you for your support. With medication, each of us can have various reactions to drugs. For example, I get unstoppable nose bleeds when I take aspirin, and requires a trip to the ER. When you look at adverse reactions to drugs by pharma, my endocrinologist points to the science of Farxiga and swears of its use. I had a nephrologist one time who said to not use Farxiga. You have to make the call as it depends on you. My eGFR trend dictated that I stop Farxiga and I did, and have since recovered from a near Stage 4 experience.
