Some good results, but...
I've been on Bydureon since January. It does seem to do an "ok" job of pulling my post prandial numbers down BUT because it delays the emptying of the stomach, it is sometimes hard to know when to test to get your post prandial results. I've not seen any of the weight reduction some talk about, but I've had no real side effects, either. There is quite a bit of a routine to go through each week mixing the contents and boy, you'd better get it injected in about 30 seconds or expect a clogged needle. Finally, the needle looks (and sometimes FEELS) like a shovel! I always have a bit of bleeding as the needle is removed. That makes me wonder if some of the product is being pushed back out with the blood.
