    Re: VICTOZA Hi all, Went back to the trial on Monday for blood tests to establish which route I take from Friday. Back to Brum on Friday and it will go one of three ways: 1.

Hiya, I would be interested in conversing with anyone else who is on the trial for Liraglutide, the nurses and staff are great but 'not diabetic' and although they understand the disease in medical terms, they are not 'living' with it.
