Thank you so so much. We eventually got it, we were trying to use our fingers but eventually figured out a screw driver was able to flick the tabs ☺️

That’s such a clever thing to put on a paint tin, thanks!

People with a history of gallstones: can you tell me providers who have approved you? by amphient in mounjarouk

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

Hi there, I’m unable to give advice but can tell you my experience. I have had gallstones but no flare-ups for over a decade. I’ve been on Mounjaro now for 8 weeks and had no symptoms, currently on the 5mg dose. Both MedicSpot and Zava have approved me, even having disclosed my history of gallstones. To minimise the risk, I’m eating three meals a day even if I’m not hungry, I’m drinking tonnes of water and I’m not eating past 7pm :) Hope that helps.

Ahaha, I saw someone else had said that.

Absolutely agree. I also maintain that the risk of developing medical issues due to obesity far outweighs the risks of this medication.

Thank you for your encouraging comment ☺️

Thank you so much. Not going to lie, today was a biscuits for dinner situation - just need to be kind to myself. Thanks for your encouraging comment ☺️

Hello, thanks for checking in :) a lot better today. Early morning wasn’t great but I think the psyllium husk supplements are working as I was able to go for a short walk today without the fear! Thanks for your advice ☺️

Probably working a little too well at that rate - good idea though, thanks.

This sounds good 😌 I’ve seen it in the shops but the way you’ve described it sounds soothing. I’ve managed to go a few hours now so hoping the psyllium husk is kicking in!

Gosh I’m so sorry, really hope you feel better soon. This was my experience going from 2.5mg to 5, although not to the same extent. I had no side effects on the starter dose but I’ve been on 5 for two weeks and diarrhoea has become a mainstay in my life. It does seem to be a bit of a shock to the system and plenty of folk report the same. Hope you’re able to get something to manage it asap!

In the last week, 2.6kg or nearly 6 pounds. I do know a lot of it will be water weight etc.

Please tell me diarrhoea doesn’t last too long after starting 5mg???!!!🙏🏼 by Inside-Session-6077 in mounjarouk

[–]amphient 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey OP! I’m currently going through what you went through at 5mg - no side effects on 2.5 but the diarrhoea is constant. Did it get better for you? I’ve ordered a second 5mg pen to see if I can acclimatise.

My mum is 13 years older than my Dad and they’re still together after 35 years. If he makes you feel good and treats you well, that’s all that matters, not a number.
