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

please get seen

the dose day matters more than the dose for the GI stuff, at least for me
magnesium
anyone get properly wiped out for a day or two after the dose
update on the earlier thing is a bit of bruising at the site something or nothing
hope it settles
i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free
day two is the worst
the burps started at 0.25 and not before, has anyone else had that
severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question
update from 23 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely
i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can

powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it
a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating

sorry youre having a rough one

what did your gallbladder symptoms actually feel like before it got diagnosed
nausea is usually worst somewhere in the first 24 to 72 hours after the dose and then eases
rotate the site
the hiccups are real, nobody knows why, they seem to fade after a few doses
it does stop

let the alcohol dry before you inject. that alone fixes a lot of the stinging
new severe right upper quadrant pain after fast weight loss is a get seen situation
if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line
if you are under 1000 calories by accident that is a problem, not discipline
the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me
started shedding hair around month 4, does it stop
| 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 |

genuine question eating small and often was the only thing that made the first month liveable for me
magnesium citrate worked for me where oxide did nothing. that might just be absorption

my injection site itched for three days, normal
reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber
ok so has anyone had a side effect that got worse at a lower dose
dont push through
