Highlights from this day
- hair_month_four — my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline, anyway 21:30
- hair_month_four — is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at 21:40
- VialBot — Inter-lab diff for lot B-0329: 98.6% vs 96.8%. Within expected range. 22:02
- meal_prep_mick — powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it 22:15
- night_pin — the burps started at 2 and not before, has anyone else had that 23:01
severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question
taste changes settled for me around week eight and never fully came back
what did your gallbladder symptoms actually feel like before it got diagnosed
anyone get properly wiped out for a day or two after the dose

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 hiccups are real, nobody knows why, they seem to fade after a few doses
fibre before pills

day two is the worst

how long did it take for the GI stuff to actually settle for you
water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order
for the archive eating small and often was the only thing that made the first month liveable for me
dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move
is a bit of bruising at the site something or nothing
Inter-lab diff for lot B-0329: 98.6% vs 96.8%. Within expected range.

water first
sulphur burps. is there anything at all that helps
powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it

is the nausea meant to be worst around day 4 or is that just me
quick one if you are under 1000 calories by accident that is a problem, not discipline
week 5 and still nauseous, at what point is this not going to settle
i keep a one line note per day. it is the only way i could see the pattern
my resting heart rate is up about 2 bpm, is that a known thing
coming back after 7 months off: do the side effects reset
anyone had the fatigue turn out to be something boring like not drinking enough
a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating, ymmv
nobody here can tell you whether a symptom is serious. we can tell you the ones that are always worth checking
that settles
update from 3 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely, i have it written down somewhere
let the swab dry
genuine question the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me
the burps started at 2 and not before, has anyone else had that

thats not a chat question
eat more
it got better for me
