Diabetes, Type 2
"I am in my 9th month of taking Invokana 100, glypizide 10 mg, and metformin ER, 2/750 mg.  My A1C has increased from 5.6 to 7.2, but I have lost 40 pounds!  I see here that a lot of people have yeast problems.  I had one and immediately started using coconut oil as a moisturizer at least 3x day, and have not had a problem since.  This is just the coconut oil that can bought at the grocery store.  I put a scoop of it in a smaller container that I keep in the bathroom and use it liberally.  My endocrinologist is not happy with my A1C being this high, but my primary doctor is fine with that number.  Endocrinologist may put me on insulin, so I don&#039;t know if I can take both.  I don&#039;t want to give up Invokana in fear of gaining the weight back."
