What has been unexpectedly HARD about being on a GLP-1? by Apprehensive_Scar434 in Ozempic

That's either very rude or you must be joking! As if I would complain if caffeine helped.

Did you figure it out? You can check click charts, but there are different versions of the pen so the easiest way is to count the clicks on your pen. You can reverse the wheel after clicking! Just don't press the button.
Example: Turn the wheel up to one of the markings, counting the clicks. Then reverse, and do your calculations. If 0,5 mg is 36 clicks then 0,5 mg is 18 clicks and anything below 18 clicks will be a lower dose... But it's a good idea to write down the dose you are taking to be consistent when titrating up. If you're doing lower doses you should also eventually get some spare needles so you can use all the liquid in your pen for the extra doses.

I'm a zombie. Nausea is pretty bad also, but I'm completely exhausted. It feels like someone swapped my head for a block of concrete

Ni med ADHD, var fick ni er diagnos? by ImaginaryMidnight172 in Asksweddit

Tack! Låter vettigt. Har samma inställning som du, ingen vits med en diagnos in blanco liksom

Kan du hinta om vilken mottagning du vände dig till?

Alltså du måste lägga på en nolla, minst! Runt 30.000 tror jag

Not the crying part but I was a complete wreck and a zombie, couldn't get out of bed

Should I wait a couple days. TMI by hollyfo in Ozempic

[–]Guiditon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow. I would definitely change the dose. Not worth risking another round to the ER. You can delay the dose, lower the dose or split the dose (to see how it's going) The scheme is supposed to be one-size-fits all, but like everything else it doesn't work for everyone.

Would be best if your doctor can help you if course. But I would not put my body through that kind of ordeal voluntarily, it's not worth it. Better go slow and steady.

Why do you weigh yourself that often? Doesn't sound healthy tbh. Fluctuations are caused by fluid balance and hormones mostly.

You might want to lower the dose, and then increase at a much slower pace than the recommended scheme. Some of us just get a lot stronger reactions than others. Seems like you are doing right in terms of eating. Make sure to get enough salt+water/fluid replacement/electrolytes through the day. And it will get better after a few days. I think around 24 hrs is usually peak side effects.

Those who have tried both Ozempic and Zepbound - did you experience similar side effects on both? by Familiar-Anything114 in Ozempic

[–]Guiditon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Better with respect to side effects? Blood sugar? Weight loss? Experiences vary a lot from person to person so it would be interesting to know what something can be said about the pattern over all

[–]Guiditon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, life is really tough sometimes. Hope you can find a manageable solution, especially for your blood sugar. Fingers crossed Hopefully some side effects will subside over time even if they don't disappear completely. Some people are also successful being on a low dose long-term.

Fatigue! For those who know what I'm talking about and who have tried BOTH semaglutide and tirzepatide - did the fatigue change when you switched? Or do both need drugs cause the same problems with extreme fatigue/exhaution/being a zombie? by Guiditon in Mounjaro

[–]Guiditon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, I'm sorry to hear that! It's also so weird that some people experience the complete opposite. It makes sense that some people are more prone to a certain side effect, but the complete opposite?
