Re: VICTOZA
It really an excellent product and I echo your words about it working wonders.
My last HbA1c was 6.1% and this morning after trying porridge for the first time this year, I tested an hour after eating a good sized portion with a straight 6 on the display. I trialed Victoza with just one other on my GP's list but now he is putting more and more over to the injections. Next year I am hoping to get my GP's agreement to try cutting down on the metformin and eventually stopping the pioglitazone.

My latest tests show my levels are 6.0 and hasn't moved for 6 months so I am stable now. Next month it will be a year since starting it, at the time I was my surgeries Guinea pig, I was the only one on the drug, and as a result the GP has now more patients on it and taken most off Byetta because of the side effects. If they ever took this off the market I think I would cry...it's a great drug and works wonders.
