fibre before pills
let the alcohol dry before you inject. that alone fixes a lot of the stinging
let the swab dry
electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried
dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move
taste changes settled for me around week eight and never fully came back, from memory
if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line
my resting heart rate is up about 9 bpm, is that a known thing

i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can, not advice obviously
severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question
how long did it take for the GI stuff to actually settle for you
i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free
coming back to this water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order

dose day = d0
0.25mg nothing much
0.50mg d1-d2 mild
1.00mg d1-d3 moderate
1.70mg d1-d2 moderate, d4 fine
2.40mg d1 rough, gone by d3the shed usually starts month three to four and usually stops. it tracks how fast you are losing
escalation is when most of the trouble happens, not the absolute dose
started shedding hair around month 12, does it stop
i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can
protein
ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at
update on the earlier thing do you drop back a dose for side effects or push through
