[QUOTE="xxxleonadxxx, post: 11853, member: 8639"] Hi guys, thanks for the welcomes, appreciated. I am on glucophage SR and also Gliclazide and the Byetta and another new one which the name escapes me. I also take Ramipril for my kidneys (although still unsure why ???). I have had all levels of each increased, reduction would have been nice but unfortunately not possible @ the mo. The side effects are rather nasty, but to be honest I can live with them, I was on insulin and allergic to it and can assure you THAT was sumthing worse than any bout of sickness (or the runs :)) that was excrutiating pain ..... which has sadly scarred me too :(. I think my docs and consultants saw no choice but to shove me onto byetta pretty quick as insulin is not an option but neither was tablet alone. And as you say too, Byetta being a fairly new drug still has a lot to be learnt about, i'm just thankful I have quite a good set of medics around me that saw its potential for me, mind you think they had ran out of options ha ha ha ha. I have been told that it is rare to be allergic to all types of insulin :), but hey I like to be different !!!!!! [/QUOTE]
