Refrigerating Insulin and Byetta

Like everyone with type 1 diabetes and almost half of the people with type 2, my wife uses insulin to control her diabetes. When we vacation, we always used to make sure that our room has a refrigerator or at least had ice that we could use to keep the insulin cold, but not freezing. Several years ago I wrote about a trip that we took to the... Read moreChevron

My Byetta Progress Report

The pounds keep coming off. In my previous progress report here about my weight loss on Byetta I was just getting started. In my first month and one-half of taking this new medicine for diabetes I wrote that I had lost 22 pounds. That was back in March. I don’t see my doctor, Jeffry N. Gerber, M.D., often.
