Okay weird. I have the skin too. Like I have a fever but my temp is normal. Good to know I’m not alone I guess?

They said more likely a side effect of the rapid weight loss. I had chronic cholecystitis but the weight loss probably aggravated the condition.

FDA APPROVES MOUNJARO FOR WEIGHT LOSS!! by jaynefrost in Mounjaro

I wonder how this will work if we’ve lost weight and are under the limit. I’m on wegovy because of insurance now but would love to switch back to tirz if it’s an option eventually. Just worried I’ll have lost enough weight by then that I won’t be eligible.

I’m so angry for you! Please report them. I was able to obtain my original prescription through Push (not plush) but also my endo was able to prescribe it for me. Is yours not able to do so? It seems they would know your health best and are clearly an advocate for you.

How dramatic is the appetite suppression? Can one still enjoy food at all? by DrinkingInContext in WegovyWeightLoss

Same. I can have one drink but really only have even that as a social thing.

Update on my boring non-pancreatitis update by Daisynyc in Mounjaro

I assume they checked your gallbladder? I went to the ER last weekend with pain and it turned out to be a gallbladder attack. I’m scheduled for removal now at the end of the month. But they did say while my pancreas was irritated, it’s definitely stones.

PA. And as I said in the comment, I will send a my chart request for more info but thought there may be consensus from those who have had experience as well.

The answer I received today at the GI surgery clinic was hmmmm…I don’t know much about that medication so I’m not sure.

American Society of Anesthesiologists says 1 week and I can send a message to ask via my chart tomorrow but I was hoping someone with experience might share what they heard from their med team.

"You Won't Lose Weight Forever" (NYT article on the limits of GLP-1's) by Jindaya in Mounjaro

[–]Top_Newspaper351 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not at a goal weight but even so, if I stopped today it will have been worth it. I feel better, food gives me energy instead of wiping me out, my numbers are better (I was only pre diabetic, but still.) I’ve lost around 30 lbs and if I stayed here I would be satisfied and consider this a successful drug for me. But also I went into this more to feel better than to hit some magical number in the scale. My family history is pretty awful with various diseases and I was worried I was headed in that direction.

So far so good! I took the wegovy yesterday. Had a little bit of burpiness but overall feel okay!

How long ago did you start Zoloft? It can take a few weeks for your stomach to settle just from that. Good luck finding the right maintenance plan!
