F**KITTY F**K F**K!

A1c = 7.3%

That's up 0.4% over three months. Meet with Dr. Scott tomorrow to discuss and change meds.

A1c < 6.0 is rough. Getting most patients to 7 without hypoglycemic incidents is bad enough.

Byetta is pretty pricey, I will admit that. I've seen really good results with it, if you can handle the nausea/vomiting. Januvia is not an unreasonable option. I'm not sure on your thoughts on the safety of Actos.

The endocrinologist was nice enough to finally be straight with me about the Byetta after a year or so of use. Many adjustments with timing etc. to no avail. "Well it's SUPPOSED TO MAKE YOU SICK!" Um, that is not the primary desired effect in the literature. I put the Byetta option on the "never again" shelf along with the Avandia.
