?? regarding starting back on byetta

Well, my last 10 mg shot was Thursday nite…my mail in pharmacy did not have my
byetta in stock (I sent my script in over a month ago). I called and they told
me that it should be available soon. Well it came this afternoon in the mail.
Soooooo….. I am wondering has anyone had to restart their meds again. At
least that’s waht I feel like.. it will be 5 days without the lizard..no stomach
problems and I am so dreading it, but my numbers are high.
Thanks Alice

    Hi Alice,

    I had the same problem and dreaded the firs 10mcg dose after the gap…and
    had no problems whatsoever. I hope it works as nicely for you.

    I haven’t had to restart Byetta so I can’t help you there. But do hang in there.
    The LIzard won’t let you down. lol

    Thanks for the reply Paula…I am so hoping that it won’t be bad. I had such
    nausea. My fingers are crossed that this time it will be gone.

    If you have trouble, call your doc and ask for an Rx for the 5 mcg pen, and
    start over. He’ll know how to word it so your insurance will cover.

    it, but i have been taking my glucophage…I take 1500 a day with my byetta.

    Your doctor is YOUR EMPLOYEE…he works FOR YOU. I’d bag a doc that got mad
    at me for anything, but especially a mail order pharmacy snafu. He probably
    has coupons for a free 5mcg pen…your pharmacist might, too. I froze a pen
    and called the pharmacy to ask what to do and they said every Byetta patient
    gets one free ‘emergency’ pen, but my pharmacy was out of the coupons so I had
    to call the 800 number and they put the coupon in the mail the next day.
