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

please get seen

magnesium

i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free

right so ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at

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

right so im at week 34 and eating maybe 900 calories without trying to, is that a problem

fibre before pills

the shed usually starts month three to four and usually stops. it tracks how fast you are losing

update from 10 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely
if you are under 1000 calories by accident that is a problem, not discipline

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

right so i keep a one line note per day. it is the only way i could see the pattern, n of 1 obviously

Verification log updated: QST — evidence added, status unchanged.

slightly off topic but powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it

sorry youre having a rough one

a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating, happy to be corrected
if you are under 1000 calories by accident that is a problem, not discipline

genuine question whats actually worked for anyone on the constipation, ive tried everything

anyone had the fatigue turn out to be something boring like not drinking enough

nobody here can tell you whether a symptom is serious. we can tell you the ones that are always worth checking

my resting heart rate is up about 2 bpm, is that a known thing

i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can

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

is a bit of bruising at the site something or nothing

does eating before or after the injection make any difference

drop a rung

the burps started at 12 and not before, has anyone else had that

has anyone had a side effect that got worse at a lower dose

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

slightly off topic but escalation is when most of the trouble happens, not the absolute dose

reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber

has anyone had reflux specifically get worse rather than better

dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move

how long did it take for the GI stuff to actually settle for you

is the nausea meant to be worst around day 2 or is that just me

that settles

quick one is there a reason nausea is worse if i skip breakfast

sulphur burps. is there anything at all that helps
