Someone posted about Byetta on the misc. meds board too. They said it was making them exhuasted.

Thanks for responding. I am looking for someone who has been on it long term about a year. I am having a good response for losing weight. (12lbs in 2 weeks) My doc said the average is 11lbs but she didn't expand on that with how long most were on it. She did say there was lady she sees that winters in AZ and she is coming back this month that has been on it 1-1/2 years that has lost 150lbs. I would love to meet and talk with her. The doc said Byetta was like a chemical gastric by-pass and the rate I am losing I would have to agree.

The meds haven't bothered me but either did Metformin. I don't have hardly any stomach issues except if I eat something extremely greasy. It does make me feel so much better. Do you think it is because we are processing our food? I am rarely hungry and have to make myself eat. Then I don't want much. My energy level is sky high. I want to clean all the time. (not a bad side effect)
