Hi I am on byetta 5 mg & am going to 10 mg on Monday. Are you on it?
Considering it? What are you wondering about? So far so good. The
nausea isn't great, but not as bad as I thought it would be. The feeling
full keeps you from being hungry, but you will feel GROSS if you eat even
a little too much. (I had salmon at a restaraunt last night, a larger meal
than I have been having & felt yucky). Losing weight. I am at work - gotta go

My daughter just starting taking Symlin, and I understand that it's similar to Byetta. I wondered whether you considered both, and why you chose Byetta, if you had a choice. Thanks!

Hello, thanks for the feed back

I have just heard of people taking it, for weight loss, in USA, and didnt know if it was over here in australia yet. I heard it was for weight loss and used with people who have pcos, but I am unsure what it does. Is it just an appetite suppressant ????? I dont have trouble with hunger and over eating, but find it impossible to lose any weight, and am looking into something that may help.

Any information would be greatly appreciated thankyou !!!!
