This is a real mixed blessing. I have recovered my beta cell function by using Byetta and for the last year Victoza so if my BG are not being controlled by low carb eating I inject 2 or 3 units to bring it down. Sometimes even this will drop it too fast and I go low. I do not do this often but only when nothing else seems to work.12/24/2011 at 12:34 PM

I had gained a lot of weight on insulin so I was on the high carb. ADA diet. I finally cut almost all carbs and lost about 60 pounds. It wasn't until I got real picky and completely cut out every speck of wheat that I lost another 25 pounds. I still have 20 pounds to go.12/24/2011 at 12:29 PM

I had to continually increase the dose until I was injecting huge amounts. At that point I was able to switch to Byetta12/24/2011 at 12:24 PM
