Highlights from this day
  • gus_charts — while im here do you tell your prescriber about the small stuff or only the big stuff 21:01
  • mira_pins — is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea 21:06
  • two_four_ceiling — update on the earlier thing the dose day matters more than the dose for the GI stuff, at least for me 22:53
  • salt_bridge — let the alcohol dry before you inject. that alone fixes a lot of the stinging 23:27

while im here do you tell your prescriber about the small stuff or only the big stuff

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 d3

day two is the worst

NP

my resting heart rate is up about 3 bpm, is that a known thing

MP

is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea

water first

severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question

TF

quick one im at week 8 and eating maybe 900 calories without trying to, is that a problem
i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can

update on the earlier thing the dose day matters more than the dose for the GI stuff, at least for me

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

SB

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