[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just got back from the pharmacy: Ozempic was covered, and I start tomorrow. Very excited. And grateful to everyone here. You inspired me to get my blood work done. They came back with prediabetic numbers. I talked with my doctor on Thursday, and she suggested Ozempic. I have 40lbs to lose.

Fingers crossed for minimal side effects.

Thanks for sharing. Did you have to get preapproved by the doc/insurance or just go to the pharmacy and hope for the best? Also, is your doc who prescribed a general practitioner or an endocronologist? Thank you![/quote]

My doctor is a general practitioner. She called it in to the pharmacy that afternoon, and it was ready for pick-up when I got home. $25 for a pen that will last 8 weeks. I’ll start with 4 weeks at 0.25mg and then step up to 0.5mg.

I started on Saturday. Definitely feel different. No desire to snack mindlessly in the evening. I’m also very tired. Thankfully no nausea. [/quote]
