my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline
#side-effects 2026-01-27
i lost my gallbladder in 2024 and i tell people that not to frighten them but because slowing down is free
sorry youre having a rough one
new severe right upper quadrant pain after fast weight loss is a get seen situation
rotate the site
coming back to this do you drop back a dose for side effects or push through
a lot of what people call fatigue on this stuff turns out to be dehydration or undereating
reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber
anyone get properly wiped out for a day or two after the dose
dont push through
protein
taste changes settled for me around week eight and never fully came back
water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order, from memory
my resting heart rate is up about 7 bpm, is that a known thing
while im here nobody here can tell you whether a symptom is serious. we can tell you the ones that are always worth checking
the shed usually starts month three to four and usually stops. it tracks how fast you are losing
let the alcohol dry before you inject. that alone fixes a lot of the stinging
everything tastes metallic since i went up, does that settle
ginger did nothing for me and worked for two other people here. thats where the evidence is at
*that should say weekly
my injection site itched for three days, normal
dropping back a rung for a fortnight is a completely legitimate move, we shall see
that settles
is the nausea meant to be worst around day 6 or is that just me
how do you cope with the smell of food when nothing is appealing
drop a rung
it got better for me
eating small and often was the only thing that made the first month liveable for me
does eating before or after the injection make any difference
update from 18 months ago: the nausea did settle, around week seven, completely
water first
whats actually worked for anyone on the constipation, ive tried everything
if you are under 1000 calories by accident that is a problem, not discipline
if a side effect is new and severe rather than familiar and annoying, that is the line
magnesium citrate worked for me where oxide did nothing. that might just be absorption
severe persistent pain radiating to the back, or repeated vomiting you cannot keep water down through, is not a chat question, ask me again in a month
let the swab dry
same at week 3
for the archive the sulphur burps seem to track fatty meals for a lot of people here, including me
i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can
[edited]day two is the worst
the hiccups are real, nobody knows why, they seem to fade after a few doses
electrolytes made more difference to my fatigue than anything else i tried
fibre before pills
please get seen
protein and iron are worth checking if the hair thing is dragging on past six months
thats not a chat question, i could be wrong
dont push through
