Diabetes, Type 2
"Have been type 2 for ten years. Janumet and glipizide controlled the A1C IF I behaved with eating. A1C went up and doctor said Invokana.  I didn&#039;t like the idea of what it does - because of what I read, but doc assured me she had many many patients on it with no problems. 
Tried the 100mg / day for three months. Didn&#039;t notice anything at first. Until now, I realized I had depression coming back after over 20 years on Paxil, exhausted all the time, gastrointestinal pains similar to diverticulitis, and blood review shows almost nothing (A1C 7.5 down to 7.3) BUT cholesterol went way up! 
I&#039;ve had no cholesterol issues for many years on a statin. 
I really think that this class of drug is &quot;wishful thinking&quot; on the part of the drug company.  BAD"
