I am getting the full injection, and the inside plunger has certainly moved down. For the past 4 days I've increased from the 5mg to 10mg on my own, and it has no results. My sister uses Byetta with great success, me however, it's as though I'm taking nothing on top of Glucovance.

I'm on Glucovance which has Metformin in it, and I take 1000mg/twice a day of Metformin and 10mg/twice a day of Glyburide.in my 5/500 mg of Glucovance.

My last lab test showed I'm producing plenty of my own insulin too.

So, if others have been where I am, and diet and exercise seem as though they have little or no effect, then had going on insulin been the only way to go?

I ask because if I'm producing plenty of my own and my body ignores it, then what good would more do? Would it work because it is not my insulin and my body might respond to it then?
