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

Highlights from this day
- sulphur_burp — magnesium citrate worked for me where oxide did nothing. that might just be absorption, take that with a pinch of salt 18:25
- lipase_lore — is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea 18:58
- lipase_lore — powering through is how people quit entirely. reducing is how people stay on it 19:00
- taper_or_not — unrelated but water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order, i have it written down somewhere 19:04
- ollie_orders — my resting heart rate is up about 9 bpm, is that a known thing 20:46
hope it settles

is a bit of bruising at the site something or nothing
reflux getting worse is documented enough that it is worth mentioning to a prescriber
let the alcohol dry before you inject. that alone fixes a lot of the stinging
is it the dose or the escalation that causes the nausea

fibre before pills
unrelated but water first, then fibre, then magnesium, then a softener, then a pharmacist. in that order, i have it written down somewhere
my resting heart rate went up a few bpm and stayed there. worth logging from baseline
does eating before or after the injection make any difference
if you have stopped enjoying food entirely and are not eating, say so, we will help you build meals
how long did it take for the GI stuff to actually settle for you
my resting heart rate is up about 9 bpm, is that a known thing

right upper side pain on and off for a week, should i be worried
i had gallstones confirmed on a scan after losing quickly. slow down if you can
the hiccups are real, nobody knows why, they seem to fade after a few doses
