Started Byetta and I'm feeling very tired.

Started Byetta and I'm feeling very tired.

I have just gone on to Byetta after using insulin for years.  I have been on it for 2 weeks now and my levels are very high 19 + and I am feeling really tired.  Is it just because of the high sugar levels or does Byetta make you feel tired?  I am finding that I am no longer craving food and I am loosing weight so I am thrilled with that side of Byetta and just hope my levels come down soon, I am hoping that the levels will come down after I have gone up to 10 units instead of the 5, I am on at present.  I have had a bit of nausea but nothing I can't handle, so far I am really glad the doctor recommended it.  I have lost  5 kilos in the past two weeks.  Yey :)

OK, good news is you lost weight. Bad news is your blood sugar is dangerously high. Continue to monitor you blood sugar levels. If they continue to be high say 4 days after increasing your dose to 10 mcg (twice daily?) be sure to call your doctor. Additional medication may be needed. And be sure to watch what you eat too. Taking medication and contradicting them with bad food choices defeats its purpose.
