Highlights from this day

sol_sends — week 20 and still nauseous, at what point is this not going to settle 12:25
stack_sceptic — electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried 12:27
stack_sceptic — if you have stopped enjoying food entirely and are not eating, say so, we will help you build meals 12:33
stack_sceptic — severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question 13:10
stack_sceptic — do you drop back a dose for side effects or push through 13:46

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

week 20 and still nauseous, at what point is this not going to settle

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 d3

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

electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried

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

if you have stopped enjoying food entirely and are not eating, say so, we will help you build meals

rotate the site

please get seen

right upper side pain on and off for a week, should i be worried

nausea is usually worst somewhere in the first 24 to 72 hours after the dose and then eases

coming back after 12 months off: do the side effects reset

how do you cope with the smell of food when nothing is appealing

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

day two is the worst

do you drop back a dose for side effects or push through
