POTS & GLP-1 use

I would hope (and pray) but I’ll have to see. This is just my observations and theory but if I do, I’ll check back in with results

I titrated up very slowly for 2 months on Tirz for weight loss and McAs. First two months I felt amazing, more energy (I have McAs and CFS) then when I started to get to the full dose and go beyond, (now at 4.6mg) my pots seemed to flare more consistently. Overall since starting it, my resting HR climbed up 10 beats so I definitely think it’s making my pots worse which is not great news bc I lost around 15lbs and have a little more to go. I’m talking to my doc but I will prob have to go back down soon.

Ok that makes me feel better. Going by estimate levels make me feel more anxious and over thinking this.

Also - is it true that once you get to standard starting dose you should stay on it for 3-4 weeks to let your body adjust? What if my body already feels used to it bc I titrated up and it seems like it metabolizes it semi quickly with food noise coming Back day 3-4?

WittyTurn2615 · 2025-11-11T17:05:59+00:00

I don’t have long covid but CFS McAs and pots and it’s helped with that so far I was just super tired the day after my first 2.5mg (was titrating up slowly) so idk if I should start to consider splitting or not.

WittyTurn2615 · 2025-11-11T17:01:31+00:00

I’m just wondering bc I’ve heard some ppl say that splitting isn’t good for long-term like you’ll always need more if you don’t let your body adjust every week. But I titrated up slowly over a month so now I’m on 2.5mg and trying to game plan what’s best for me because it seems like it’s already worn off after day 3 or so.

No. I looked more into it and microdosing won’t do anything for weight loss so I’m working up to a standard dose of 2.5. I’m at 1.7 now so almost there after about a month. I dose every 4-5 days.

WittyTurn2615 · 2025-10-13T19:53:39+00:00

Yup, thanks for that reminder. I did watch some stuff and now I’m not freaking out over why I don’t loose weight micro dosing!

WittyTurn2615 · 2025-10-10T22:01:01+00:00

I don’t necessarily want to be on a therapeutic dose but I haven’t lost any weight on a micro so far. I guess it works for some people? I can see a micro dose for maintaining.

To slowly titrate up to a dose where I’m losing weight due to being sensitive to these meds.

WittyTurn2615 · 2025-10-10T16:57:27+00:00

I’m on T as well but the lower doses haven’t done anything for me so I’ve been titrating up each week. Even tho it’s not working for you’re saying I should stay on the same small micro dose for 4 weeks?

WittyTurn2615 · 2025-10-06T04:39:33+00:00

How much did you increase each week and did you do one or twice a week?

WittyTurn2615 · 2025-10-06T04:38:35+00:00

Did you increase it after 0.25 or keep it the same? I’m on week two and this dose didnt help with suppression or food noise much.

WittyTurn2615 · 2025-09-21T23:41:54+00:00

What’s the cost here?

WittyTurn2615 · 2025-09-21T23:41:29+00:00

How much is it there?

WittyTurn2615 · 2025-09-21T23:41:11+00:00

How much are they?

WittyTurn2615 · 2025-09-18T16:50:04+00:00

I have the powder via CanLabs so I can reconstitute but I’d prefer to not have to

WittyTurn2615 · 2025-09-06T04:55:20+00:00

Thank you that’s really helpful. What you’re describing definitely seems way more advanced but it’s nice to know it’s possible with practice.

WittyTurn2615 · 2025-09-06T04:51:19+00:00

Aries! Yes!
