electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried
ok so if you have stopped enjoying food entirely and are not eating, say so, we will help you build meals
is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea
protein
update from 12 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely
water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order
is a bit of bruising at the site something or nothing

protein and iron are worth checking if the hair thing is dragging on past six months
let the alcohol dry before you inject. that alone fixes a lot of the stinging
let the swab dry

a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating

if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line
while im here my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline
started shedding hair around month 18, does it stop
how do you cope with the smell of food when nothing is appealing
