 1  Diabetes Two DO NOT TAKE THIS DRUG. I have such joint pain. I lost all my strength in my arms and shoulder pain. I could not even walk up my driveway as it affected my knees also. The pain is excruciating. I wish I had never taken this drug. I have been off it for a while and seem to have permanent damage to my joints and shoulders. BEWARE! I remain with the terrible side effects of this drug. The strength is gone and my arms ache terribly. I cannot even take my hands and put them over my head toward my shoulder...It was so scary waking up in the morning and having my arms stuck where I could not move them. Wish I could sue this company. F 65 365 days

Baby wipes Pampers are good can be tworn into half at one side so you have twice as many wipes to use use wipes one side then fold in half use again then use toilet paper to blot down below. So far I have not gotten infected. Wipes for hands only also works. Thank you to the lady that posted the information.. F 72 2.5 months

Constant joint pain - whole body Dry mouth/ felt dehydrated Frequent urination/ incontinence Very painful kidneys I think this is a scary drug and doctors are under pressure to prescribe it.

 1  Type 2 diabetes The constant trips to the bathroom started almost immediately. I was dehydrated. Started taking massive amounts of fluids but couldn't get it to stay in. Developed severe muscle pain. Several days later so fatigued I stayed in bed for the better part of 2 days. Tested positive for a UTI with severe pain in my side. Believe it may have settled in the kidney. Took myself off as it didn't really affect my blood sugars at all. I wouldn't recommend this to my worst enemy. F 52 14 days

 1  Type 2 Diabetes Extreme weakness. Yeast infection. Insomnia. Joint pain. Dizziness. Excessive urination. Incontinence. DEPRESSION. Review 1 A.. I will never take another JARDIANCE tablet in my life. I was prescribed high dose Prednisone for nasal polyps 7yrs ago. Unknowingly my health deteriorated extremely whilst taking that drug and waiting for surgery. I nearly died. I had no idea that my blood sugar was so elevated. I never had a problem with blood sugar. Even when I had my 2 children. 2016 I took myself to hospital with a very swollen painful finger from a tiny scratch. The resus team was called to my bed twice that night. The poisoning effect of the Prednisone had deteriorated my health to near death. I required 3 surgeries and an extended time in hospital. As a result I was prescribed a cocktail of drugs for blood sugar, gut health, high blood pressure and bone density. My bone density is that of a 90yr old. I have lost 3inches off my height. I was imediately placed under the care of an endocrinologist. I know how blessed I am to live in Australia with a public health system that still provides care in such situations. I was not prescribed Jardiance at first. After approx 20 mths of continued outpatient care, they said it was a new drug and "we are seeing good results...you might get a slight yeast infection" Now after 2 years on Jardiance I constantly feel like I will never be free from pain and thrush and never be able to sleep through the night. I consistently get extreme yeast infections when I have never had a yeast infection in my life. Shortness of breath. F 56 2 years

 1  Type 2 Diabetes Review 1B Very distresing isomnia. Restless legs. Extreme joint pain so concerned that I once presented to the Emergency department. Full blood test, scans and ultrasound showed nothing. Overwhelming depression. Extreme random pain. Body anxiety..a feeling of overall physical distress. Constantly tired. Yesterday I needed to dispense another months supply it cost $56 for 30 x 25mg tabs but something said to me maybe you should check out that drug. See what others have experienced...it was that little voice inside your head that we know we should listen to. Well here I am this is about the third site I have visited and I have been overwhelmed with sadness to read the terrible experiences people have been put through because of this toxic drug. Thank-you for giving me the opportunity to at least share my experience. I pray for improved health of all of us. F 56 2 years
