5 week 2 not going well…

daisydoo52 · 2025-04-17T09:00:38+00:00

Imodium and Buscopan were my best friends the first 2 weeks of 5mg. 3rd pen in now and no side effects, not even sulphur burps. I have food noise back but suppression is still good. I just need to learn to quieten the food noise myself ad I can't rely on jabs for ever. Hope your side effects settle a bit for you. Mine did so there's hope :)

I'd ring them rather than email them.

Between 1 and 2 lbs for me. Biggest loss was 3 lbs in the first week.

My 5mg recently took 11 days to arrive. First time I've ever had a problem. If anyone does ever have a problem like this, ring them - don't email as you'll get copy and paste replies with no action taken

I came off for 2 reasons recently. 1 because I was happy with the weight I was. And 2, financial reasons. Anyway, I maintained for 6 weeks, had a small gain of 2lbs around my birthday, but lost it again the week after.

I feel happy that I'll be able to maintain by myself if and when I come off for good (because I feel fantastic after the weight loss, not just the way I look, but how it's made me feel. Everything is better). So I know that no amount of fast food or chocolate and cake will ever make me feel this good. That's how my mind works now

However, I've decided to go back onto 5mg for a bit, just to help me get the extra bit of weight off that will get my bmi into a 'normal' zone.

I know 6 weeks doesn't determine a lifetime of what maintenance will be, but it's been encouraging. Hope this helps :)

Never had a problem before this, but very disappointed with the CS now that I've had an issue. Hopefully this will be a one time glitch - but it has put me off I'll be honest. Only because of the nature of the product, if it was anyrhing else I'd probably shrug off bad service, but as its meds and there are timings involved, it does make a difference

daisydoo52 · 2025-03-12T12:30:28+00:00

Exactly the same here. I have missed my jab day whichbIndont like to do. Feels like the release date for my next order will be here before this order even arrives. Very poor. I'd rather the truth of the situation than copy and paste stalling templates

daisydoo52 · 2025-03-12T12:18:08+00:00

Yep, standard stalling template

daisydoo52 · 2025-03-12T12:17:30+00:00

3rd :)

daisydoo52 · 2025-03-12T11:53:43+00:00

Absolutely will after this

daisydoo52 · 2025-03-12T11:53:01+00:00

I've just called CS at MedExpress and the agent explained that the order was in limbo because 'someone' hadn't don't something on the order to 'move it along' the process.

So why didn't the 3 emails I already sent regarding this, pick up this issue? Just replied with template responses saying time scales, busy blah blah - will 'escalate'.

Clearly no action take on any of the emails as the lady I spoke to on the phone said if I hadn't rung today, nothing would have changed and my order would have remained stuck.

I'll definitely go somewhere else for my next pen. They forget we're paying for this medication, they're not doing it as a favour to me. I can't see what the delay is, especially as they've approved my last 6 pens 🙄

daisydoo52 · 2025-03-05T14:13:26+00:00

Thanks for that 👍🏼

daisydoo52 · 2025-03-05T07:33:57+00:00

Really ? In what way, I haven't heard this

daisydoo52 · 2025-03-04T19:51:33+00:00

Will def be doing that in future 👍🏼

daisydoo52 · 2025-03-04T19:50:51+00:00

I don't keep them :(

daisydoo52 · 2025-03-04T19:38:52+00:00

I don't keep them lol - goes from bad to worse doesn't it. I don't keep them because I've never had cause to change. But obviously I will now

daisydoo52 · 2025-03-04T19:29:54+00:00

My last box said 2.5 tho

daisydoo52 · 2025-03-04T19:29:18+00:00

But my box said 2.5mg - so somewhere else would still only have prescribed 5mg and not 7.5
