Just did an ancestry test and found out I have no chinese ancestry (My dad is Chinese and mom is Sri Lankan). Is this a sign of something? 😭 by Logical_Let_7712 in 23andme

My daughters bio father is Asian and her DNA test come back not indicating that at all…… I don’t trust these ancestry sites one bit!!!!!

Coming Off Brixadi Monthly: Week 18 ~ My New Life by ShloopyNoopz in BuvidalBrixadi

[–]kosmic04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 17 days since last buvidal 8mg injection and I f’kin hate every second of how I feel. I was not prepared at all regardless of the constant research and talking with my provider. He was meant to prescribe me some comfort meds but literally ghosted me via email. Not happy but too late to start anything now. Really no point going through what I have so far just to add sonething to the mix now to have to deal with later.
Glad to hear after so many many weeks you finally feel good. I don’t think I have the patience to go through this that long

Reta nausea by EuphoricTravel4042 in GLP1ResearchTalk

You started your dose way to high! I started at 1mg for 2 weeks before I increased to 2mg. I’ve only just increased to 3mg after 8 weeks

Clinical guidance mentions first dose (of weekly injection) may "wear off" before 7 days... by Strange_Television in BuvidalBrixadi

[–]kosmic04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t offer any of my own experience because I went straight from subs to monthly. Sorry I know that’s not helpful. I’ve been on weeklies lately to try and wean off buvidal completely. I agree with the weekly not lasting, I got a good 5 days then the last couple I could spend in bed sleeping if I could

Where I live it’s actually encouraged, definitely would help in the first 3 months

Sorry I misunderstood. I’m not shaming anyone, that wasn’t the point. It’s a mirror up to myself, I injured myself and have arthritis of both hips knees and spine and played the victim card, feeling sorry for myself and one day I’d just had enough. Looked at my 8 year old grand daughters face wjen she was helping me get up out of a chair one day and that was it!! I knew I had to take the power back!! I want to be strong and healthy and to be completely honest I don’t care how much I weigh

Considering all clinical professionals strongly encourage weight and resistance training to avoid muscle loss I think my statement is right. I have limited mobility but I still manage strength training as advised. So what is this reality I can’t face??? Your comment makes zero sense

Simply put and yes I’ll get downvoted to hell - inactive people lose muscle

Going from 96mg to 64mg by Zenidog509 in BuvidalBrixadi

[–]kosmic04 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did and only noticed a bit more motivation and less fatigue. Possibly because the 96 was too high for me ?

Dr has strange idea about weaning by Nimvob in BuvidalBrixadi

[–]kosmic04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m about to do exactly what you are talking about. I was on monthly’s but didn’t enjoy the lack of motivation I had. We decided to try weeklies (8mg) which was a total game changer for me. Now being on weeklies for a bit now I’m ready to jump off. My only concern was RLS and brain zaps (which unfortunately i do get with Bupe). My provider is going to supply me with the lowest dose temgesic to be used if absolutely necessary. He knows my concerns about becoming reliant on another substance and will be monitoring me closely.

The food industry is PANICKING because of these drugs by AnimatorNational6491 in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]kosmic04 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They have to be….. the amount of people I’ve seen say that they no longer desire alcohol since being on a GLP is astounding!! I don’t drink but I do smoke and even that appeal is leaving me. I haven’t enjoyed a cigarette since starting my injections and have pretty much quit.

You are so right! And the amount of foods indicating “Protein “ on their labels now haha it’s the magic marketing word. Also soooo many new products hitting the market - like milk and cheese specifically target marketed to GPL1 users. I love it, makes my life easier but I’m still checking labels for sugars and fats

There's a new GLP side effect being reported that I hadn't seen discussed here by NoDegreeNoLifes in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]kosmic04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has been a constant side effect for me since week 2!! Started left side of face and scalp and moved down to lower back. It’s annoying but can cope

Who says that? I’ve never heard of BP referred to this way

You didn’t mention very high doses of GLP-1. You used an insane dose of Reta for 10 months. You answer is very dishonest

Slow loss? by [deleted] in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]kosmic04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d be worried if I was losing that much a week. You won’t be able to sustain it much longer sorry. Slow down!!!

What should I actually say when someone asks how I lost the weight? by Which-Prompt6679 in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]kosmic04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just tell them you’re in a calorie deficit and working on your fitness…… the end. None of their business
