Highlights from this day
- electrolyte_eli — slightly off topic but protein and iron are worth checking if the hair thing is dragging on past six months 09:21
- power_through_no — is the nausea meant to be worst around day 7 or is that just me 09:45
- amsterdam_aliquot — is there a reason nausea is worse if i skip breakfast 12:27
- amsterdam_aliquot — the dose day matters more than the dose for the GI stuff, at least for me 13:01
- amsterdam_aliquot — severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question, we shall see 13:26

if you have stopped enjoying food entirely and are not eating, say so, we will help you build meals
is the nausea meant to be worst around day 7 or is that just me

follow up taste changes settled for me around week eight and never fully came back
update from 8 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely
while im here site itching is common and rotation fixed it for most people i have seen post about it
Inter-lab diff for lot B-0329: 98.1% vs 97.4%. Within expected range.
same at week 3
right upper side pain on and off for a week, should i be worried

the hiccups are real, nobody knows why, they seem to fade after a few doses, not advice obviously
i keep a one line note per day. it is the only way i could see the pattern

my resting heart rate is up about 6 bpm, is that a known thing

powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it
the dose day matters more than the dose for the GI stuff, at least for me
has anyone had reflux specifically get worse rather than better
hope it settles

anyone found the fatigue lifted when they fixed their protein
is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea
whats actually worked for anyone on the constipation, ive tried everything
is there a reason nausea is worse if i skip breakfast

that settles

eat more

if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line
the dose day matters more than the dose for the GI stuff, at least for me

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

dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move
electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried
my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline
magnesium
protein
severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question, we shall see

my injection site itched for three days, normal
eating small and often was the only thing that made the first month liveable for me

Digest for the week of 2025-03-12 has been published.
rotate the site
i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can
the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me
escalation is when most of the trouble happens, not the absolute dose
coming back after 13 months off: do the side effects reset
do you tell your prescriber about the small stuff or only the big stuff
do you drop back a dose for side effects or push through
please get seen
