Then month 6-7 I had really achy joints and genital itching worse than any yeast infection I have ever experienced. I had to stop taking to solely because of that.

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 25mg 1X day | 4/4/2021 |
