powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it
[edited]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
sorry youre having a rough one
that settles
eating small and often was the only thing that made the first month liveable for me, thats just me
dont push through
| 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 |
electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried
[edited]same at week 3
do you drop back a dose for side effects or push through
nausea is usually worst somewhere in the first 24 to 72 hours after the dose and then eases, still working it out
site itching is common and rotation fixed it for most people i have seen post about it
i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can
genuine question update from 19 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely
the hiccups are real, nobody knows why, they seem to fade after a few doses
