right so everything tastes metallic since i went up, does that settle
day two is the worst
thats not a chat question
it does stop
whats actually worked for anyone on the constipation, ive tried everything
eat more
what did your gallbladder symptoms actually feel like before it got diagnosed
reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber
started shedding hair around month 20, does it stop

right upper side pain on and off for a week, should i be worried
anyone found the fatigue lifted when they fixed their protein
the shed usually starts month three to four and usually stops. it tracks how fast you are losing
do you drop back a dose for side effects or push through
the hiccups are real, nobody knows why, they seem to fade after a few doses, your mileage will differ
Batch lookup KP-0925: 3 independent reports on file, earliest 2025-05-13.
is there a reason nausea is worse if i skip breakfast
nausea is usually worst somewhere in the first 24 to 72 hours after the dose and then eases
anyone had the fatigue turn out to be something boring like not drinking enough
week 11 and still nauseous, at what point is this not going to settle

magnesium citrate worked for me where oxide did nothing. that might just be absorption, thats one data point
let the alcohol dry before you inject. that alone fixes a lot of the stinging
water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order
site itching is common and rotation fixed it for most people i have seen post about it

magnesium
is a bit of bruising at the site something or nothing
if you are under 1000 calories by accident that is a problem, not discipline
new severe right upper quadrant pain after fast weight loss is a get seen situation
dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move
for the archive is the nausea meant to be worst around day 9 or is that just me

*i meant subcutaneous
im at week 13 and eating maybe 900 calories without trying to, is that a problem
let the swab dry

please get seen

does eating before or after the injection make any difference
update from 2 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely

the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me
i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free
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 d3anyone get properly wiped out for a day or two after the dose
taste changes settled for me around week eight and never fully came back
electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried
has anyone had reflux specifically get worse rather than better
sulphur burps. is there anything at all that helps
the burps started at 2 and not before, has anyone else had that
genuine question, at what point does this stop being tolerable and start being a reason to stop
my injection site itched for three days, normal
is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea
coming back after 24 months off: do the side effects reset
the dose day matters more than the dose for the GI stuff, at least for me
[edited]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 d3ok so how do you cope with the smell of food when nothing is appealing

dont push through
powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it, n of 1 obviously
hiccups. every single time. why
protein and iron are worth checking if the hair thing is dragging on past six months
*VendorInvestigate not the other one
nobody here can tell you whether a symptom is serious. we can tell you the ones that are always worth checking
it got better for me
unrelated but how long did it take for the GI stuff to actually settle for you
Verification log updated: JEEP — evidence added, status unchanged.
fibre before pills
if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line, happy to be corrected
site itching is common and rotation fixed it for most people i have seen post about it
my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline
eating small and often was the only thing that made the first month liveable for me
