My fasting glucose level has increased in the last month. I've been taking my meds as directed and my diet has remained the same. I've been injecting Byetta for nearly two years (twice a day). My husband saw that there is a class action suit against the manufacturer because of side effects, damage to the pancreas. I did some reserch on line and found there are all kinds of side effects, damage to the kidneys, liver and G.I. issues.
I used Byetta for a long time and I am not an expert or medical person. You are best to get the information from your doctor. Before I started using Byetta, I had to take classes from a nurse on how I had to inject Byetta into my stomach. It was prescribed by my Doctor. Byetta has side effects reported by some people but I had no problems with it other than the expense. It does give you a feeling of fullness and it has a nickname (Spit).
I would really like some help with this. Byetta has been wonderful so far, and I've lost 30 lbs, yay! But now I've developed insomnia - terrible, only 3 hours of sleep a night insomnia, which has never bothered me before. If I skip my second Byetta shot for the day, I can usually get a full night's sleep. So that's certainly a clue that I may not be able to take the full two doses of Byetta a day.
IS ANY ONE KHOWS A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST THE COMPANY WHO MAKES DENTAL IMPLANT
THAT JUNK HAS MANY SIDE EFFECTS THAT MUST BE DISCUSSED WITH THE PATIENTS. INCLUDING CAUSING AUTO IMMUNE DISEASE . BUT MANY DENTISTS EITHER ARE NOT AWARE OF IT OR DENY IT.
I HAD TWO DENTAL IMPLANTS. FINALLY I REALIZE THE BEST THING TO GET RID OF THEM IS GOING OVERSEAS WHICH I DID. I TOLD THE DENTIS I DON'T WANT TO LIVE WITH THESE IMPLANTS ANY MORE
I WOULD RATHER DIE THAN LIVING WITH THEM.
I see that this is under juvenile diabetes, which I know even less about. But, Byetta is remarkable for a lot of folks, and there are two newer, similar, products available also.
I actually started on Victoza about 3 months ago. I had to change to Byetta in about 2 weeks (finished Victoza sample and insurance would only pay for Byetta). I developed nausea at the smaller dose of Victoza, and never used the larger dose. The nausea was unchanged with the change of meds.....and I have lost a LOT of weight (29 pounds). But the nausea started within a day or two of starting it. At least for me.
I have been sick with a cold/flu for three weeks. Two days ago, I developed diarrhea. It seemed to occur immediately after eating. Today, the diarrhea was bright yellow and I passed something the size of a small grape (also yellow in color). I'm currently on synthroid (for hypothyroidism), effexor (for depression), and metformin & byetta (for insulin resistence). I've been on the Byetta for nearly a month, but have not suffered any side effects to date.
I was diagnosed with type II diabetes 3 months ago. I was started on byetta at the routine initial dose which was increased 2 months ago. I am only taking byetta, and no oral hypoglycemics (metformin, etc.)I have lost 29 lbs in that length of time, primarily due to decreased appetite, nausea, and vomiting. I understand that this is in all likelyhood due to delayed gastric emptying. My question: Is this ever going to get better???
I didn't respond to your question. I don't know anything about Byetta.
Are you a type 1 or type 2 diabetic? He is type 2 he started taking a new medication called byetta. You inject in your arm before you meals. My husband has lost 40 lbs in the last 6 months. He just can't eat like he used to since he has been on the byetta. It curves your appetite and apparently helps your body produce it's own insulin. It might be something you want to run by your endo doctor. Let me know.
dose anyone else have a mean mother in law ever time i see this lady she always has something mean to say about me for example this pass summer i told my husband i wanted to get a swim suit and she said why you think just cuz your *** went down your going to look good in a bathing suit i was like wow its just comments like that that get to me and now that im pregnant im ready to snap any one else feel me on this
A law suit to whoever didn't put a wet floor sign out?
i have 15 byetta prefilled pens 10mg for sale as i no longer need them maybe their some one what them and they are all store in cooler/fridge.
Ashley,
I have had the same problem since using Victoria Secret bras as so many others. Did you get a response on how to get involved with the class action law suit and if so what steps can I take?
Just don't tell them you are pregnant when interviewing. If you have worked in retail I suggest Nordstrom. They are a big company and don't want a law suit due to a pregnancy.
Thank you for your reply, I'm aware of Symlin and Byetta, but neither My Dr. and what information I can gather on the web works as well as Victoza. I understand Byetta is coming out with a medication that lasts much longer but it uses a larger needle and is truly an injection. Don't understand why these drug companies in the US price their product out of reach of most....
