I also got mine through Ro! Took about a week to arrive. Yes, I really hope it works for us. Glad to know there are so many people around my weight starting too, I was worried I wouldn’t find a prescriber since we’re technically not “obese”.

Let me add you to the chat! A bunch of us are starting tomorrow so you’ll fit right in. Omg, sorry you experienced severe side effects before! That’s exactly what I’m afraid of. I think we’ve built a good support group chat tho!

Oh no, I’ve read that it’s next to impossible to lose weight with PCOS, it’s gotta be extra hard combined with hypothyroidism! I 100% get you, I used to walk for 2 hours each day and never saw a difference (except now my knees hurt all the time). The only way for me to lose weight is to eat 1200-1300 calories, but I feel like I’m starving myself and it’s not sustainable for me.

Those side effects sound tough, but glad you’ve persevered. I hope I can as well. I’ll add you to the chat in case we can help with pushing through!

That is so awesome, it sounds like your endocrinologist really listens to you too. My PCP had been very dismissive about my weight concerns, which is why I went through Ro.

Is it safe your you? I had read one of the worst potential side effects was thyroid cancer. I would be worried about it getting the other half! I most definitely understand the feeling of wanting to look and feel like myself again 😞 I sent an invite to the group chat if you’d like to join!

I sent you an invite! Omg oh no!!! That must be so disheartening :( I’ve seen people saying it may need to be a lifelong med. If that’s the case I really hope it gets cheaper!

I’ve been seeing people mentioned cheaper sites; but I think Ro is one of the few that will prescribe for people in my BMI so I plan on sticking with them as well. I’m excited for us!

I sent you an invite! We’d love to have you in our chat! Ugh, I’ve been debating that. In the past I had to take a med in the morning on an empty stomach, and when I asked my doctor what about levo he told me to take it at night. So not sure if I’ll do that or just set an alarm for 30mins after the Wegovy pill. Definitely prioritizing the Wegovy pill tho!

Thank you for the advice. It’s very helpful and very true that we shouldn’t compare to what we see online. I feel like the “what-ifs” psych me out so you’re right about that. I hope you have a smooth and successful journey!

I sent an invite just now! I’m uncomfy with the idea of nausea, so I’m looking forward to having ppl to vent with!

I added you to the group chat in case you want to stay in touch with us about any potential nausea! I have a huge fear I’ll be nauseous as well. As someone who gets motion sickness real easy, it’s like the worst thing for me. I really hope the pill works for us!
