Is there anybody out who is using Byetta and also has a Ileostomy?
I ask this because I have recently had surgery that resulted in me having a Ileostomy. During my stay in hospital Byetta was removed from my medications. I have asked my surgeon why it had been stopped he replied it probably had not just stopped for the operation and then missed after and not added to discharge sheet. He also said he was unsure of its use and recommended contacting the prescribing doctor. I have contacted the prescriber who is looking into it (and has been doing for some weeks now). If anyone out there is using it with an Ileostomy could you please let me know how its going and any problems you may have encountered.
