[QUOTE="Traveling Guy, post: 86741, member: 20916"] [b]Re: Anyone use Byetta?[/b] Hi, I started Byetta (Exenatide) last year on 5 mic dose twice a day and aside from a little sickness all went well, increased to 10 mic and had real problems with sickness for a number of weeks, took a break (as I was traveling for 8 weeks and not wishing to spoil the trip) but have lost 2 stone - not sure if it was the drug or sickness - lol Having a great diabetic team we tried again longer on the 5 mic and increasing but I could not cope with the sickness and feeling lousy (however levels were good between 4 and 6) so I have stopped for a break and back on Metformin and Gliclazide with good results and no more sickness. The Byetta is a great drug and works well for me it was just the sickness, but I am going to give it a break and then try again, no doubt we are all different and we just have to try and see how it works for us. Hope they can overcome this issue somehow. As for needle phobia I found the tum a great place, never really felt the jab at all, not even a "sharp scratch" good luck with it. Keep smiling [/QUOTE]
