You might want to check into the possibility that Byetta is causing your problems. Go off of it for a while and see if your symptoms improve.

I was on Byetta, 10mcg twice a day, for a couple of years before I discovered that it was causing my secondary Raynaud’s symptoms.

I strongly recommend you work with your diabetes specialist to ensure that your blood-sugar stays in the healthy range as you go off of the Byetta.

It took about a month to get the Byetta out of my system, but I’m so glad to be normal again! No more super-sensitivity to cold in my hands and feet!

I’ll gladly find another way to control my diabetes, even if it means multiple daily insulin injections!

I hope this helps!
