Have Diabetes 2 taking Jardiance for kidney

I swim every other day, sometimes also on off days. About 25-30 minutes nonstop. Unfortunately I can't freestyle but some of the time and snorkel most of it. I am going to post a question about pool temps. I believe the Guardians is helpful with my kidneys, but what really helps with glucose levels is this intermittent fasting. Even though I haven't lost any weight, maybe a pound or two in over 3 weeks now, my morning glucose levels, well, this morning it was 118. I haven't had readings in the teens and twenties for 4 or 5 years.

@cekkk I’m responding to your post in the discussion about Jardiance medication and kidneys.

You mention swimming and a “question about pool temps”. I s that supposed to be in a different discussion?

You mention “Guardians”. Do you mean Jardiance? Did auto correct spelling get to your post?

You mention glucose levels and 118. That is a pretty good glucose level. But you said “I haven’t had readings in the teens and twenties for 4 or 5 years”. If you are still talking about glucose levels, you shouldn’t. Teens and twenties is way too LOW for glucose levels! Normal is 80 - 120 ish. This can vary for individuals depending on other medical conditions and medications. Has your provider given you a glucose level range recommendation?
