My N-A-G trial is not going well.
First off it seems to increase my pain... my arthritis pain!
Secondly it is raising my blood sugars!
I am going to discontinue it... and see if the blood sugars come back down.
I searched glucosamine and NAG quite a bit on the net.
There is even a study to show that glucosamine does NOT raise sugars, but actually there is very little other evidence of this effect studied well. So it is possible at least for me, this is not going to work in my metabolic state.
I'll stay off it for 2 weeks, and retry. If I get elevated again, well, that will be the end of NAG for me!
edit to add: I've just researched amitriptyline now, and find it also can affect blood sugar! So DRAT... helping me sleep but now I have to stop it too? I am NOT happy about this!
