I'm going to be starting it next week as soon as my pharmacy gets it in. Saw the consultant and diabetic nurse today for the first time in 2 years, there has apparently been a big gap in support and the GPs have been carrying the can for some time.Just wanted to know if there is anything I should know about before I start :?: I'm 59, 18.5 stone and have severe spinal problems so I get very little exercise. the drugs I'm currently on are: Tramadol and Pregabalin try to control my  painLansoprazole for gastric refluxDiclofenac to stop my knees swellingTamsulosin so I can peeCo-amilofruse and Losartan keep my blood pressure normalSotalol keeps my heart from skipping beatsSimvastatin keeps my cholestrol nicely in the normal rangeMetformin and gliclazide at max dose struggle to control my BG and failDoes anyone know if any of these are going to conflict with the Victoza? I've been told to ramp up the Victoza and ramp down the Gliclazide on my own authority depending on BG readings. Either they trust me or they've gone bonkers.I was tried on Byetta last year but had to give up after 3 months because it turned me into a zombie. Several times I actually fell asleep while standing up :shock:  12 hours after stopping it it was as though a veil had suddenly been lifted and I could think again. CheersBrian</blockquote>
