[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Solidarity. Getting old sucks. The best thing I did was get out on Mounjaro. It brought my A1C down. The weight loss brought my blood pressure and cholesterol down. I’m no longer on medication for those. I joke that I traded one chronic med for another but getting the weight off has helped in so many ways. As American standards go, I was average. 5’3/150. Now I’m 5’3/118. 30lbs doesn’t sound like a lot but it made a huge difference in my health. Talk to your endo and see what they have to say. I believe that in the future many of us are going to be on the GLP-1 meds in the same way many of us are on BP/Cholesterol meds. Why treat the symptom when you can treat the underlying issue.[/quote] I feel consolidating is good, since more than 5 have shown real adverse effects: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK532953/#:~:text=As%20aging%20individuals%20often%20contend,frailty%2C%20disability%2C%20and%20mortality.
