On a positive note
The unconventional aclymitization to Byetta that I followed under supervision from my Diabetic nurse specialist and drs(due to other major health issues). together with 500mg of sr metformin in the evening 2 to 3 hours after Byetta injection and sticking to 120g digestible carbs a day has worked for me producing daily readings between 4.8 and 6 and a fasting reading in the high 6's.
I have found over the past few weeks that if I regulary stray over the 120g to 150g carbs a day then my readings rise to the mid 6's and a fasting reading in the mid 7's.
I have tried shifting my meal times slightly to fall in with other family members who work but this later eating pattern also increase my BG readings (especially fasting)
Most successful with byetta 10mu g (no later) 05.30, eating by 06.15(or within 45 minutes), lunch at noon and evening byetta 10 mu g at 16.45 meal by 17.30 and metformin 500mg around 20.00hrs with a non carb snack and strictly 120g digestible carbs over the whole. If I maintain these eating times the BG fasting reading also comes in below 6, so am enjoying the early morning solitude.
