Mr. Jensee....Without insulin symlin is pretty pointless. I don't know if you are type 1 or type 2, but I don't see how symlin will help a type 2 without insulin. Symlin is designed to work WITH insulin injections. Also, I would think as a type 2 with insulin resistance one would have a symlin resistance as well.

Is they any reason they took you off Byetta? If it worked, why change?
