[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did anyone who experienced bad semaglutide side effects use a real doctor? (I.e. not someone you found on the internet but someone who has a long term relationship with you and who you can call if you are having problems with the semaglutide.) And did anyone experience bad side effects on the branded medication (not compounded)? I'm considering going on semaglutide but am afraid of the side effects. But it's hard to know whether people with stories of bad side effects are using the real drug or the compounded drug and whether they used their regular doctor who knows them well or just someone who spit out a prescription at maybe too high of a starter dose.[/quote]

Yep

I have an endocrinologist that is fabulous who prescribed mine.
Metformin made me so sick took for about two weeks. No go for me.

Wegovy first lowest dose. Side effects, bad from lethargy to constipation to everything else even pancretitis. Was on it for six months lost 4 pounds. I stopped it cold turkey so glad I did.

Zepbound have been using it for about 5 weeks. I doubt I wlll be able to continue. It is not a bad as Wegovy for me however I lose about two days a week to side effects which is not something I am willing to do. Dr. Suggests I try it for 12 weeks to see if my body adjusts but i just left an exercise class ten minutes in because I was so sick to my stomach. I will say Zepbound as a product for me is better cost wise as well. Side effects are bad not as bad as the wegovy were.

I am short, in my 60s and about 30 lbs over weight. Diabetic type 2 which I have tried to lower with diet and excercise did not work. UGH Hence the GLP.

I am seriously considering just being fat LOL not worth it to me even with Diabeties.
