    It's Either a Famine or a Feast

    After 7 months or being told that it wasn't cost effective to give T2s test strips the hospital sent another letter to my GP office strongly suggesting that they furnish me with anything I require for testing. I went to my pharmacy yesterday to pick up my Victoza and test strips, they didn't...

    Well I've been on Victoza for gone 4 weeks now. I haven't had any of the side effects - good or bad - and my bloods are not really improving.

    Still waiting on tenterhooks for all hell breaking loose with the side effects. :lol: Saying that though; last night I had lamb chops for dinner and as soon as the last bite was down the first bite was fighting to get back up. Think I'll be sticking to the leaner forms of protein for a while...

    Amitriptyline (for pain relief)

    Re: Amitripyline (for pain relief) I was on this for 3 months last year. It made me cranky and irritable and I was eventually taken off it as it didn't mask the pain in my leg. This of course could be what made me so irritable.
