I saw my internist 4 days ago and was placed on byetta, which I've yet to start. Logged on and have found soooo much info on this new drug, some kind of scary. I'm most concerned about the nausea that seems to be prevalent when first initiating this drug. Will be taking my first dose on Nov. 22, 2005 and hope I can bypass the nausea. My status is type 2 and I'm currently on amaryl and hoping to decrease my fasting blood sugars which are running 120-160.
