Byetta results
( I had my 6-week follow-up with the endocrinologist today. )
Anyway, after 6 weeks on Byetta, I've lost 14 pounds, and my A1C is back down to 6.3, which is where it was when I was first diagnosed.
So, yay for modern science! If I had been diagnosed with diabetes back in the 80s, I would likely be facing a much shorter lifespan and more complications. Here's hoping I and all the other diabetics out there can someday live a normal life.
On an unrelated note, we actually have two small, mishapen plums on our plum tree!
