I am a type 2 diabetic and my A1C runs 7 to 7.5. In October my doctor upped my glipizide from 5mg to 10mg and my A1c in January was 9.8. Can upping my medication have caused this? My liver enzymes are also elevated and I have never had that before.
Hi dear you have now uncontrolled type 2 diabetes Mellitus. Elevated liver enzymes are due to disturbed fat metabolism that is associated with diabetes. The action should be taken to control diabetes and I would suggest non-pharmacological measures such as jogging, yoga, Panama etc. Use stevia plant leaves for sweetening purpose. Liver enzymes would come to normal in due course of time without any medication.
