Well regardless I am screwed till Monday when the office opens. My Doctor is an Endocrinologist and yes all the tests necessary have been performed. I have seen him for the past year and have managed to lose weight and keep the blood glucose in check. I checked the Symilin website and the package directions and nowhere does it say anything about using it without insulin therapy. This is why I called them. I am also a Paramedic and know a lot about diabetes, insulin resistance, etc. I am insulin resistant. I am increasing my excersize to see if this will make a difference. I am definitely making a move to get back on the Byetta. I am not interested in starting insulin as I know how much harder it is to regulate. While I still have pancreatic activity I intend to not become dependent on insulin. Studies have shown people who go to insulin before cesation of natural insulin production tends to cause the pancreas to shut down all together. Why do this unnecessarily?
