Hi everyone

I am from Denmark, and I have been in insulin treatment for Type II diabetes
for
about 9 month now.

During the 9 month, I have gained about 20 kg more than my normal weight,
and maybe Byetta can help me get some of this lost again. But I also know
that I have to do something active myself. Byetta is not some kind of
miracle cure to weight loss. But I think I have the motivation to do
something now, because on my job we are having a "health year" in 2008, and
then I have someone to compete with. :-)

I hate the feeling when I have low bloodsugar, and after what I've heard,
Byetta doesn't give theese low bloodsugars. I don't mind having to inject
medicine 2 times a day. That's no problem for me.

My doctor has suggested me to change to Byetta instead of insulin. I have
used Glimepirid to stimulate my own bodys insulin production, but that has
not helped at all. However my doctor is certain, that my pancreas is able to
produce some insulin, so I could get some benefits from changing to Byetta.

Is there anyone of you who use Byetta, and how are you feeling after you
have changed to the
new medicine?
