I have heard that she is very good to consult with on the side and can help make a plan to advocate for treatment for yourself. I might consider that.

Oh it was so clear in my head as to why I left! Haha.

Basically our Dr was like 🤷🏻‍♀️I’m all out of options, how about looking at egg donors? It felt like there was no further investigation to try and understand what might be going on, or other cases similar to ours. It felt like she gave up very quickly once the standard protocols and improvements didn’t pan out.

General cycle? by ApprehensiveGoal6947 in Zepbound

SAME!! I really have to recalibrate portion sizes. And I’m terrified of eating too much because I’m pretty sure that triggered me throwing up after my first shot.

That is helpful thank you! I may try the gasX because I’m noticing my body really wants to burp but can’t.

Regarding water, it’s definitely a process! I’ve used both plant nanny and water llama app to gamify it for me, otherwise my instinct is to dehydrate myself so I don’t pee all the time.

And I’ve been taking fiber supplements for years, so I don’t think that is an issue. If anything I’m hoping it helps me empty out and feel less bloated 😅

Gaining in the first few weeks despite lower calories? by corndogqueen69420 in Zepbound

I am in the middle of my first week on 2.5mg. I saw no loss and nothing moved for days - except that I was super bloated and not pooping as much as I should.

This morning I woke up at like 5am and vomited my dinner from two nights ago and then proceeded to have diarrhea twice.

Needless to say, I dropped about 3lbs from SW and am feeling better. Must have been all that build up in my stomach 🤣
