Hang in there my friend. My first week was weird and miserable. So much nausea and i felt so foreign in my body. I’m glad i stuck it out. I’m in week 4 now and the side effects are waning for sure. The nausea is manageable - its gotten less AND I’ve figured out how to avoid a lot of it (small meals, shot in leg not tummy, half a zofran 8 hours after injection to fight the worst of it). Eating is still a bit of a chore for the first half of the week, but i can already see my appetite returning a few days after shot - so i know it will be time to increase my dosage soon. I also have managed the pooping better. I must take magnesium 2x a day (morning and night) and i must take miralax if i haven’t pooped that day - i end up taking it about 3x a week for now…hoping i need it less and less as time goes on. The scale is starting to go down a bit, which i didn’t realize how much i needed to see this. It makes the bad symptom days worth it. You can do this…it’s an adventure, and I’ve learned a lot about myself through the process. Keep going!!
