I have been on bydureon since September/12. I have lost 27lbs but nothing since and I seem to be holding with that so far. My A1C went from 9 to 7 which was great also and my appetite has gone way down. Metformin made me feel like I was starving all the time.

The Doc told me not to worry about them and I don't but I would like some kind of explaination as to what they are at least. They are as hard as a rock and vary is size.

My doctor prescribed this without checking my family history. My father died of thyroid cancer. Was anyone else prescribed this med and have thyroid cancer in their family? The medication did not help at all and made me sick all the time. But the worst of it is that now I need to have an ultra sound every year.

I have been taking Bydureon since the first of December. At first lots of diarrhea but no other stomach issues. I think that was more from the increase in Metformin the doc ordered. The symptom that is bothering me now is that my hair is falling out like crazy. My bs went from 7,5 to 6. I am very happy about this. Have not lost any measurable weight however. I am turning into a lumpy, fat, ... Show Full Comment
