@arleighna - it gets better with time! My first 6 mo I was in bed for 2 days, nauseated. Now I get tired and slight headache on the day. I also take Zofran 30 min or so before injection. The day of the injection I eat light - crackers and swiss cheese.
Hang in there! There are benefits to Lanreotide!
I also take bitter melon and watch my carbs, and my glucose seems to stay stable (~130 in the morning)

I've stopped the lanreotide and am restarting the immunotherapy. My dr told me we would know by the 2nd injection whether it would work for me or not, and it actually made my nausea, vomiting, and everything else worse. It gets a little frustrating sometimes but it eases my mind to know there are others out there who can relate. So thank you again .
