Hi I'm new to Byetta (5 mcg.) this week. I was already on 1000mg Glucophage XR, but went back to 500mg. while I started the injections 2x's a day. I'm on my third day and so far so good. I have had minimal nausea, but get a little bit of tightness that travels around in the abdomen if that makes sense.
Some good effects for me are feeling less hungry first thing in the morning and just not wanting to eat as much/as often. Also, I've had less digestive upset than I'd get on Metformin alone. The Met diarrhea is why I cannot tolerate that med at high levels. I'm hoping to work back up to 1,000mg Met and stay on the Byetta/5. What doses of Byetta (and Met, if applicable) are you all on?
