[QUOTE="GillC, post: 9929, member: 6949"] Hi Dave P I have had exactly the same response when I have challenged a nurse's advice to eat plenty of carbohydrates. That's not good advice for us type 2's, as my food/BM diary can demonstrate. I would advise anyone to keep a food diary with their blood results and see for themselves. The literature always talks about the importance of self-management, but some of the professionals treat you like an idiot. Hard evidence is always good to have. Well. I've just got home from hospital after switching to Byetta, They kept me in for 2 days to monitor me, but apart from slight nausea after meals (which might just have been in response to the hospital food, which was awful) I have been feeling fine. My bloods are high (16-20) but apparently this is to be expected at first. They said that they would probably start treating patients who switch as outpatients, as the 40 or so that have switched in Gateshead have had very few problems. Gill [/QUOTE]
