water first

ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at

rotate the site

genuine question, at what point does this stop being tolerable and start being a reason to stop

the shed usually starts month three to four and usually stops. it tracks how fast you are losing

everything tastes metallic since i went up, does that settle

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

im at week 26 and eating maybe 900 calories without trying to, is that a problem

i keep a one line note per day. it is the only way i could see the pattern

let the swab dry

unrelated but a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating

the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me, for what its worth
update from 3 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely

anyone had the fatigue turn out to be something boring like not drinking enough

is there a reason nausea is worse if i skip breakfast

i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free

if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line

coming back after 26 months off: do the side effects reset

sulphur burps. is there anything at all that helps

dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move

update on the earlier thing protein and iron are worth checking if the hair thing is dragging on past six months

what did your gallbladder symptoms actually feel like before it got diagnosed

quick one the burps started at 12 and not before, has anyone else had that

nausea is usually worst somewhere in the first 24 to 72 hours after the dose and then eases

has anyone had a side effect that got worse at a lower dose

update on the earlier thing escalation is when most of the trouble happens, not the absolute dose

started shedding hair around month 13, does it stop

reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber

dont push through

update from 17 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely

protein

whats actually worked for anyone on the constipation, ive tried everything
