Highlights from this day
- vialkeeper — is the nausea meant to be worst around day 8 or is that just me 22:40
- gall_bladder_gav — the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me 22:57
- forty_five_kg — protein and iron are worth checking if the hair thing is dragging on past six months, we shall see 23:09
- gall_bladder_gav — nobody here can tell you whether a symptom is serious. we can tell you the ones that are always worth checking 23:42
if you are under 1000 calories by accident that is a problem, not discipline
Reminder set. I will post here in 5 days.
water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order
anyone had the fatigue turn out to be something boring like not drinking enough
it does stop
has anyone had reflux specifically get worse rather than better
is the nausea meant to be worst around day 8 or is that just me

if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line
how long did it take for the GI stuff to actually settle for you
slightly off topic but do you drop back a dose for side effects or push through
coming back after 25 months off: do the side effects reset

update from 13 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely
my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline, i have it written down somewhere
sorry to jump in powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it
sulphur burps. is there anything at all that helps
what did your gallbladder symptoms actually feel like before it got diagnosed

drop a rung
the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me
| 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 |
started shedding hair around month 5, does it stop
unrelated but dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move, your mileage will differ
let the swab dry

eating small and often was the only thing that made the first month liveable for me
the hiccups are real, nobody knows why, they seem to fade after a few doses
| 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 |
protein and iron are worth checking if the hair thing is dragging on past six months, we shall see

eat more
slightly off topic but i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free
fibre before pills
how do you cope with the smell of food when nothing is appealing
protein
[edited]day two is the worst
the shed usually starts month three to four and usually stops. it tracks how fast you are losing
im at week 14 and eating maybe 900 calories without trying to, is that a problem
reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber
nausea is usually worst somewhere in the first 24 to 72 hours after the dose and then eases
a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating
severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question
nobody here can tell you whether a symptom is serious. we can tell you the ones that are always worth checking

new severe right upper quadrant pain after fast weight loss is a get seen situation
i keep a one line note per day. it is the only way i could see the pattern
ok so escalation is when most of the trouble happens, not the absolute dose

*Medutest not the other one
