QX for DR C Re: BYETTA Injections

[Kayford 0]

:clap2: DR C,

My endocrinologist just took me off insulin. YAHOO!

We did start me on some Byetta injections, Avandamet and Avandaryl. So far the Byetta seems to be helping me lose. I have lost 9 lbs since my last fill on Sept 11 and I usually only snail along at a pound a week.

Have you heard of any contra-indications for Byetta and the lapband?

I am not a Byetta expert by any means, but I can't really imagine any problem using it along with the band.

Kayford, I know this is an old msg, I was wondering how you are doing? I started Byetta a week ago, not banded yet. Are you still banded and on Byetta.
