Used to be on insulin but now on Byetta. This problem was even worse before I started these drugs, used to wake up with mornings of over 15. Nurse said that Liver dumps glucose overnight which causes this. Michelle.

I go to bed with BG of about 7 and always wake up to about 9 - 11 which I am trying to get down. Michelle

Hi, I also agree that uneducated people are infuriating when it comes to Diabetes. I am your typical Diabetic shape and carry any extra weight around my middle. I do however stick to a healthy diet and before being diagnosed 3 years ago I had four pregnancies/kids and had gestational diabetes...

Thank you, I fully agree, feel brilliant on Byetta so hoping this problem injecting is just a blip. I was previously on insulin and had no problem at all however they sting quite badly when I inject Byetta and I am covered in bruises. Will continue to use my thighs. I did it last night on my...
