Jinae commented on Scott Strumello's group 'Symlin Users Forum'"I got a scare! I woke up took my sugar it was 165 then decided to try and do 45 units of symlin. I have been doing 30. I ate a bowl of noodles and took 6 units of apidra. and then was sitting here and all of a sudden felt like my sugar was low. I…"
Jinae left a comment for Dora"Sorry another question i haven't really noticed much yet. I am still eating a lot. Will that change once i keep upping my dosage? I have done 30 today, but gonna wait to see what my dr. says next week til i go up anymore."
Dora left a comment for Jinae"Yes it is normal. Every time you increase your dosage you could get a full or ill feeling. I have also noticed the discomfort in the shot. I have found it is better in the belly than the thighs."
Jinae left a comment for Dora"Hi i have a question.....well i just started the symlin a few days ago. Just a little bit ago i decided to try 30 mcg instead of 15 and it hurt more going in and then im not sure if it was in my head but i felt a little instand nausea. Just…"
Dora replied to Jinae's discussion 'Just started symlin' in the group Symlin Users Forum"Welcome! I am in a simular boat as you. I also take Apidra, Lantus, and Symlin. I am up to 120mcg and it works most of the time. The idea was to stop the highs. I do get a very full feeling after taking the Symlin. I also have to take it right…"
Jinae commented on Scott Strumello's group 'Symlin Users Forum'"Well today is my 2nd day.....still on the 15 mcg and haven't experienced any nausea. hopefully i'm lucky or will i get it when i go up on my dosage?

Right now i feel a little like when i have a low sugar reading but i just took it and it said it was 224! It's not unusual for me to have some highs like…"
Denise Bevard replied to Jinae's discussion 'Just started symlin' in the group Symlin Users Forum"I am a T1 and usually I use a pump, but have used symlin while off the pump too (not long) but had to make those changes so if you have a question might be able to answer it in non pump lingo"

Jason replied to Jinae's discussion 'Just started symlin' in the group Symlin Users Forum"Symlin will definitely help with the appetite and satiety issues. Work up to 120mcg if you can- that will give you the best results. The weight loss can be rather profound, which appears to be what you are looking for. I have a 2 part, soon to be 3…"
