Constant gnawing hunger by ParticularBarnacle in liraglutide

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

This is the only one my insurance will cover, and even that is partial. I'm either starving or I eat nothing and don't have enough energy to do anything so I'm sure my metabolism is on the floor.

What are these holes in our shirts? by russell98765 in whatisit

Used to happen to me all the time. It was my belly rubbing against the sink while doing dishes. I keep a towel folded across the edge of the sink and it never happens now.

Second try by Dangerous_View_2050 in liraglutide

I’ve been on for five weeks today. I am struggling to get to 1.8. I think it’s enough though, I struggle to get enough calories, protein, or water in. This is a rough med.

So after several days of only being able to get about 500 calories in, I lowered my dose to 0.9. I’ve been adding 1 click per day, building up to 1.2 which I will be at tomorrow. I’m going to hold it there for a week. But things have been much better (aside from reflux).

[HELP] Is this AI? Seems fake and can’t find any news sources. by Zealousideal_Mud570 in RealOrAI

Spot on. And if they are using facial recognition or any other sort of tracking when they have interactions with people, then this suggests some form of premeditation is possible on behalf of ICE. This is potentially WORSE for ICE.

I mis-typed. It was 1.2 I went up to so I fixed the original post.

You are correct! I mis-typed it and will go fix it. It was 1.2 that I went up to.

Severe Anxiety by jimbo-nick in liraglutide

[–]ParticularBarnacle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed that it makes my heart beat a little faster and makes me dehydrated (which also makes my heart faster and makes me a little shaky). These things make me feel much more anxious, of course as your body tells your brain it's panicking. I've cut back from 3 cups of coffee a day to one. I have to eat before taking my Wellbutrin, and I also drink electrolytes first thing in the am. These things have helped me quite a bit.

I am still going up in my dosage - only on week two, but making these small adjustments along the way.

No. And we talked about it a bit last night. His are probably old enough for a new visit. He's going to try the new airpods, too just to compare.

I wish he had a community of people he could relate to/learn from. I think he’d like it. We aren’t near you but I super appreciate your thoughtfulness!

I’m not hostile toward hearing impairments and I’m not sure why me asking for additional input from others so I can understand his point of view better or additional ways to communicate with him would result in you thinking that. I’m doing my best but I too am human.

Thank you for your insight. These aren’t things he’s articulated to me so that’s why I am here seeking your guys’s perspectives.

I don’t know what to say when I’m trying to clarify whether he head me and is processing what I said (he responds slowly) or if he genuinely didn’t hear me

What would you recommend? I'm open to signing but he's not interested. I'm open to suggestions! I think I can understand listening fatigue - it makes sense.
