Highlights from this day
- step_one_sian — anyone had the fatigue turn out to be something boring like not drinking enough escalation is when most of the trouble happens, not the absolute dose 21:37
- step_one_sian — the dose day matters more than the dose for the GI stuff, at least for me, your mileage will differ 21:50
- electrolyte_eli — is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea 22:34
- comment_fatigue — for the archive electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried 23:21
- comment_fatigue — everything tastes metallic since i went up, does that settle 23:22
eat more
| 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 |
eating small and often was the only thing that made the first month liveable for me
how long did it take for the GI stuff to actually settle for you
week 32 and still nauseous, at what point is this not going to settle
thats not a chat question
the dose day matters more than the dose for the GI stuff, at least for me, your mileage will differ

let the swab dry
reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber

if you have stopped enjoying food entirely and are not eating, say so, we will help you build meals
if you are under 1000 calories by accident that is a problem, not discipline
water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order
nausea is usually worst somewhere in the first 24 to 72 hours after the dose and then eases
the dose day matters more than the dose for the GI stuff, at least for me
drop a rung
sorry to jump in protein and iron are worth checking if the hair thing is dragging on past six months, i think

my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline

the shed usually starts month three to four and usually stops. it tracks how fast you are losing
is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea

let the alcohol dry before you inject. that alone fixes a lot of the stinging
hope it settles
please get seen
nobody here can tell you whether a symptom is serious. we can tell you the ones that are always worth checking
the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me
i keep a one line note per day. it is the only way i could see the pattern, i could be wrong
👀2
sorry to jump in the burps started at 2 and not before, has anyone else had that
for the archive electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried
