Off to the Doc

I headed down to see Dr. Bob today as I'm going to shortly switch from Byetta to Bydureon, which means that I'll be doing one injection a week instead of two a day. I'll let you know how it goes. :)

While I was there, I got a tetanus booster since my last one was probably while I was in college. Bob was suitably appalled.

Although Bydureon is more expensive (at least at the moment), the once-a-week dosage is both more convenient and appears to offer better control of blood sugar and appetite with fewer side effects.

And although my co-pay is a good bit higher for Bydureon, I'm not paying for the needles (which I was with Byetta), so it's only up by about 50% instead of 100% net. :)
