Jeannie, Thanks for the info. I have not been using any fiber supplements since beginning Byetta. I was concerned about the mixture of the two. I understand Byetta slows down digestion and fiber...

LEX4153 I do the same thing. I have a graph that I record my BS on and it shows be when I start to spike so I can tell if there is a common factor causing it. Food diary and weight loss chart- 2...
Hi Joy, I felt the same way at first. Like morning sickness sometimes stronger, thats all gone now. IT WILL GET BETTER. I do like Warren get a "reminder" if I have too many carbs of a sneack attack-...
I agree with Warren 100%- but I was afraid to put it so strong. Diabetes is such a scary disease when you really educate yourself on what could happen if you don't take care of yourself, AND your...

I think the doctor is caring enough to try to protect you. Sometimes it is best to wait a little when something new comes out. Remember phen-phen? My doctor was hesitant too but I know him well...
Thank you Tracy. My levels in the morning are a little high and the suggested 10 pm snack does not help. So I was wondering if maybe I needed more at night and if anyone had heard of the two...
