More Byetta information in response to problems.
Dr. Joe, Now that I am using the 10mcg 3 times a day I am having a constant problem with my hands and feet being extremely cold - there is almost no time of day, other than when I am in hot bath, that they are warm. I am concerned that this is a sign of a circulation problem - is there anything that can be done for this? Should I be concerned about long range impact here? Otherwise it is working great and helping me to my goal!
These symptoms are not from circulation but from the Byetta stimulating the autonomic nervous system. Since you are losing weight, your metabolism wants to "shut down" to prevent heat loss.
The first thing is to make your trunk warm. Sweater, jacket, long John's and the like. Secondly wear a hat. Lastly gloves.
This is normal.

I thought the normal dosage of Byetta was supposed to be twice a day rather than three times a day.
