Diabetes, Type 2
"My A1c started creeping up to 7.8 from 6.6 a year ago. My blood sugars were not dropping below 200 in the mornings. I must admit that I was not watching my carbs very well. I went to my endo and she said that I needed to lose weight and watch my carbs. She also said that from the minute I got diabetes, my pancreas began to die. Shocking. She put me on Vicotoza and gave me same sample pens. I started on .6mg for the first week. I had horrible stomach aches, especially at night. I felt bloated as if I had eaten a big meal. I didn&#039;t know that it would cause this discomfort; would have been nice if she would have told me. I took antiacids but it didn&#039;t help.I increased to 1.2 the second week with symptoms, back to .6. Will see what happens."
