If you aren't happy with your control on all that medication and afraid of using Byetta, there is another strategy possible.
What are you eating?
that's where the bulk of the blood glucose comes from.( a little is made in your liver.)
Glucose is the product of digestion of sugars and starches. If you reduce the amount of these foods that you eat, your BG WILL come down.
You can do this in a number of ways
1. Portion control
2. better choices. [select foods by their carb content]
3. using GI and GL to inform your choices.
There is a lot about all these on this forum
If you'd like to:
give us a breakdown of what you eat in a typical day and we can comment and suggest ways which will help, so that you can chose what will suit you
