Do you watch your carbs? Did you have any problems with your first dose of Byetta?
Thank you for the welcome!

I met with a diabetes educator several years ago who indicated that I should keep my carbs 45-60 per meal and no more than 25 per snack. I'm starting to think that may be a bit too high and am going to start doing some experimenting. I've never really done much in the way of seeing how my body reacts to different foods. My A1c was always between high 5 and low 6 until this last one, so, it's time to try to get better control.

No issues with my first two doses of Byetta. Slight nausea, odd taste in my mouth and diarrhea - but after being on metformin for 3 years, it's hard to tell if it's met related or caused by the Byetta.
