Hello everyone
I'm new to this and just wondered what other people's experience is. I've had Type 2 diabetes now for 22 years and am on the highest doese of Gliclazide and Metformin. I've heard very good things about Byetta and as I don't want to go onto Insulin asked my doctor about it. He says that I am not overweight enought to go on to it but I gather that in other Health authorities that would not be the case. Does anyone else have the experience of not being allowed to have it? presumably it's a cost issue for some authorities.
