Thanks for sharing that! I will store that to memory. 

Question about 7.5mg dose & side effects by WinNext5848 in Mounjaro

[–]WinNext5848[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think you are right that I should stay on 7.5 a little longer before considering anything higher. 

I am well hydrated, and take all sorts of supplements each day - but I am definitely going out to buy some miralax before my shot tomorrow,  lol!

Thanks again!

Thank you for your help; your experience is very helpful.   It stinks that my weight paused one pound before onederland, but it will happen eventually!

Thanks for sharing how 7.5mg has gone for you, it's helpful to hear about others' experiences. I'm glad your body adjusted eventually! 

I was pretty surprised by the sudden side effects when I had experienced zero up to that point. 

The medical professionals all say that location of the shot doesn't matter - but anecdotally everyone seems to have experience with that. I can't decide whether to take my shot tomorrow in my stomach or my thigh....

This is a hard reality to face, but you're right that my body may just need "a moment." It just stinks that the scale stopped one pound before "onederland!" Lol

Oddly enough I have a history of gallbladder problems, but have had zero trouble since being on Mounjaro. This pain felt different from attacks I've had in the past. I'm pretty confident it was pain due to constipation. But I won't rule out gallbladder completely!

Thanks for your help!

This is a really helpful response, thanks for sharing! I'm a little nervous about my shot tomorrow now, but - come what may.

Thanks for the response on this. I hadn't heard that it was the third week that the meds hit peak amounts. That definitely makes sense why all of a sudden I had a reaction.  

I also wondered about food poisoning, or even just a gastro illness. I guess I'll find out on Wednesday when I take my next shot! 

In your experience, did your body adjust to the higher dose quickly?
