Only things I experienced were a "feeling of being full" (like after Thanksgiving dinner, but all the time) and a little stomach cramping. Both only lasted a few days, and now I am as right as rain!

I actually had a **** of a time to get started,. a little bit of stomach cramping, and the very full feeling. and it took me a little while to learn NOT TO EAT so much food LOL... for me the hardest part was learning when how to bolus and when to inject the symiln.. for me, what I find is the best... is I take the symiln about 20 to 30 mins before a meal, and when I bolus I always use the dual wave bolus, taking about 50 percent now, and 50 percent over the next 2 hours... for me this works great, my post meal never rises more then 30 to 40 points, and i'm usually back in the 90 to 110 range after 2 hours and back to 85 to 95 an hours after that. again YMMV, ad with everything with diabetes, different things work differently with everyone..

good luck if you try it, and remember to be patient, it pays off in the end.....
