Highlights from this day
- third_shift — anyone had the fatigue turn out to be something boring like not drinking enough reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber 20:51
- mid_week_mo — i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free 21:04
- chlorhex — new severe right upper quadrant pain after fast weight loss is a get seen situation, someone check my working 21:41
- chlorhex — does eating before or after the injection make any difference 21:43
let the alcohol dry before you inject. that alone fixes a lot of the stinging
please get seen
protein

has anyone had a side effect that got worse at a lower dose
magnesium citrate worked for me where oxide did nothing. that might just be absorption
same at week 3
*week 21 not week 5
eating small and often was the only thing that made the first month liveable for me
i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free
taste changes settled for me around week eight and never fully came back
the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me
follow up reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber
the dose day matters more than the dose for the GI stuff, at least for me, we shall see
magnesium
| Step | What | Give it |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | water, properly, all day | 3 days |
| 2 | soluble fibre | 4 days |
| 3 | magnesium | 3 days |
| 4 | stool softener | 3 days |
| 5 | pharmacist | now |
sulphur burps. is there anything at all that helps
drop a rung
ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at
water first

update on the earlier thing do you tell your prescriber about the small stuff or only the big stuff

whats actually worked for anyone on the constipation, ive tried everything
a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating
i keep a one line note per day. it is the only way i could see the pattern
it got better for me
my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline
if you are under 1000 calories by accident that is a problem, not discipline
eat more
escalation is when most of the trouble happens, not the absolute dose, for what its worth
i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can, anyway
thats not a chat question
everything tastes metallic since i went up, does that settle
how do you cope with the smell of food when nothing is appealing
anyone get properly wiped out for a day or two after the dose
fibre before pills
