I recently stopped taking Byetta, but was on it for 2 1/2 years. I have a great deal of swelling all over, but especially in my legs and face. I have also been having painful urination the last few days. My last bloodwork (two months ago) didn’t show any signs of kidney problems. Should I be worried?
