[QUOTE="Osidge, post: 296473, member: 17302"] Hi Judith I used to use my thighs or tummy for injecting the Byetta but with Bydureon I only use my tummy. Partly this is where I have most fat and partly because the needle is wider for Bydureon as it is a suspension rather than a liquid (you have to mix the powder with the liquid yourself but it is a doddle to do). With Byetta I found that the needle almost glided into the skin. With Bydureon, however, I found that putting it in slowly caused some discomfort but a quick jab in did not. My results with Bydureon have been good for blood glucose and enabling me to reduce my metformin to 500mg once a day. I have had a slight weight gain since moving from Byetta to Bydureon :( Regards Doug [/QUOTE]
