For Diabetes, Type 2 “I have being on Byetta 5mcg&Lantus 3mths I’ve had constant nausea which varies in severity. I haven’t had a reduction of bgl they are still quiet high; I am not at all sure whether both meds have really worked for me over the past 3mths&my diabetic educator thinks the same&my endocrinologist will most likely change my meds altogether next review. In one week i’m going on 10mcg…I hope that it works but not holding my breath – I’ve never had the brilliant results that others on here have had – the nausea has never gone away but the earlier dizziness did…although it hasn’t worked for me I believe that it’s worth trying, I did have hopes that worked for me, there are other meds & I will get my bgl’s in a normal range&lower my HbA1c”
