Reminder set. I will post here in 6 days.
hope it settles
taste changes settled for me around week eight and never fully came back
is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea
nobody here can tell you whether a symptom is serious. we can tell you the ones that are always worth checking
does eating before or after the injection make any difference
sorry youre having a rough one
severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question
ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at
sorry to jump in anyone had the fatigue turn out to be something boring like not drinking enough
Inter-lab diff for lot SG-1177: 96.8% vs 99.4%. Within expected range.
anyone get properly wiped out for a day or two after the dose
water first
anyone found the fatigue lifted when they fixed their protein
unrelated but the hiccups are real, nobody knows why, they seem to fade after a few doses
quick one if you have stopped enjoying food entirely and are not eating, say so, we will help you build meals, thats one data point
is there a reason nausea is worse if i skip breakfast
rotate the site
if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line
new severe right upper quadrant pain after fast weight loss is a get seen situation
drop a rung
let the alcohol dry before you inject. that alone fixes a lot of the stinging
magnesium citrate worked for me where oxide did nothing. that might just be absorption, n of 1 obviously
my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline
a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating
unrelated but whats actually worked for anyone on the constipation, ive tried everything
the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me
update from 23 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely
i keep a one line note per day. it is the only way i could see the pattern
let the swab dry
how do you cope with the smell of food when nothing is appealing
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, for what its worth
day two is the worst
Purity check: no report on file for lot F-1330. Nothing logged either way.
everything tastes metallic since i went up, does that settle
On this day 6 years ago this channel logged 101 messages.
electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried
protein and iron are worth checking if the hair thing is dragging on past six months
powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it
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 d3same at week 3
update on the earlier thing site itching is common and rotation fixed it for most people i have seen post about it, your mileage will differ
reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber
i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free
that settles
nobody here can tell you whether a symptom is serious. we can tell you the ones that are always worth checking
quick one eating small and often was the only thing that made the first month liveable for me
quick one 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
