[QUOTE="sharikab, post: 105746, member: 23066"] [b]Re: Anyone use Byetta?[/b] Hi everyone, firstly thanks for all the posts about Byetta, has put my mind at rest. Am new to here after googling Byetta yesterday, was prescribed it on Thursday by the consultant. Was quite nervous about the side affects and in particular how it would affect usual day to day life, work, etc. However have not experienced any severe nausea yet, this is my second, so fingers crossed. Am still taking metformin SR 2,000mg per day, along with pioglitizone and Gliclizide and have suffered severe weight gain since starting the gliclizide last year (wasn't warned about this) and undid all my hard work having lost 5 stone, now have put on more than I lost :( . So am hopeful that the Byetta will help with weight loss also, as I know that most of my problems with the Diabetes stem from my weight (and poor genes as both my parents and brother are now type 2 also) Will keep posting to let you all know how I get on, am off on holiday in 5 weeks so hope the nausea doesn't kick in as it would be good to start the increased dose before I go. Happy Halloween to everyone :D [/QUOTE]
