Can Withdrawal Of Medication For Diabetes Cause Bloating With Inflammed Legs And Hands?
i have been experiencing bloating, inflammation in my feet, legs and hands. i have diabetes and recently stopped my medication because my sugar levels were normal. i also have been taking biotin for hair loss. can that have something to do with the inflammation? or is my body responding to the cessation of my taking janovia?

Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. You should be worried but not too much. Actually, Metformin can make your spine/bones feel badly.If you have diabetes you are susceptible to neuropathy,that's why you can have pain,inflammation also.
I suggest :
- use only ginger, cinnamon, and natural sugar blockers;
- gabapentin 750 mg at night for pain;
- massage with Diclofenac(anti inflamed drug) gel.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.
Wishing you good health
