[quote=Anonymous]Anyone with a chronic condition can tell you that there are no medical interventions that are risk free. Even a simple Epley maneuver for vertigo could make you vomit. Almost any doctor or person with a chronic condition will tell you that different bodies respond differently to the same intervention and that different people have varying tolerances for discomfort. I've has a necessary diagnostic procedure that was literally traumatic for me, while a friend returned to work on the same day that she had that procedure. I’ve discontinued a medication for intolerable side effects. Meanwhile, my 80 year-old relative benefits from the same medication at a higher dose and no side effects. My bad experience is not a reason to take the medication away from my relative. Rather, it’s important that we all have doctors who listen to us and advise on how to adjust dosing or discontinue a medication if we find it intolerable.

I don’t understand why GLP-1 agonists inspire such moral panic. Someone’s relationship with their body and with their doctor is none of your business.[/quote]
