Re: Anyone use Byetta? That's alright, as long as it's normal, yeah I'm injecting in my tummy. Had a bit of a blip today on the old blood glucose levels 15.8 before dinner, but then I've not felt very well since last night when I went to bed, thought I'd treat myself last night to a bottle of...

Re: Anyone use Byetta? Just thought I'd write a quick note to update. I've been using Byetta 5Ug since Monday eve now, & it's working well...although I'm finding I now have eyes bigger than belly syndrome a lot. I've been a coward & not tried eating bread yet...although it's not made me feel...

Re: Anyone use Byetta? Hi, This evening's injection wasn't so bad, I was actually hungry, so that's ok, although I didn't eat a lot, it was enough....although I had a bad craving for crisps :oops: about 4 hours after my 1st injection today...I find I'm really tired about an hour after each...

Re: Anyone use Byetta? This morning I've had my second injection, all seems ok...although, I don't feel sick, but I do feel...weird...like I don't want to eat or drink anything at all...it's been a struggle to get myself to eat anything today so far in order to do my morning injection...this is...

Re: Anyone use Byetta? Had 5 microgram injection of Byetta about an hour ago, had dinner, def felt fuller quicker, No nausea, feel light headed though & VERY tired. A bit painful still round the injection site, but otherwise not too bad :D Let's hope things continue as smoothly :wink:

Re: Anyone use Byetta? Aaaah...Thanks for that, good to know...am really nervous about taking it...Mum's dropping dinner up to me as I'm too poorly to go over there tonight (Had an interesting time at the hospital today when I went for a blood test - almost passed out :? ) I've asked her to...

Re: Anyone use Byetta? Well finally the letter from my diabetic consultant arrived today...5pm I have to go & pick up my prescription, so I guess I start Byetta 5 micrograms tonight with dinner... :? I shall let you all know how I get on...But I don't feel terribly well today anyway...went for...

Re: Anyone use Byetta? I think in view of the odds I'll put off my trip until I know what Byetta's going to do, As the last thing I want is to be going round on rides already feeling sick. I just saw someone say something about not being able to eat bread, are there certain foods that you...

Re: Anyone use Byetta? Hey thanks for the reply. I have a funny feeling the gliclizide may be what's "helped" make my pancreas "tired". As I have gone from 40mg per day to 160mg twice a day in a year. If I'm not type 1, then what am I? Because I was told that it USED to be thought that type...

Re: Anyone use Byetta? Hello, I've just been told I'm getting Byetta by the consultant at my local hospital (friday)...Apparently he's got to write to my GP & get him to prescribe it though. He expects the process to take 10-14 days is this normal? My BM's are between 18-20 most days, so I...
