[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What kind of  Dr is prescribing these meds?
I feel like my GP won’t do prescribe. 
My bmi is 28 but my cholesterol and triglycerides are high and so is cortisol so I  have heart palpitations too. Holding off until we know heart is generally ok but looking into options to get the weight off.

I’ve done keto to lose weight but it didn’t really do much last time and the high cortisol is hard to battle.

Thinking it might be time for meds. 
Anyone use an online service?
I have UHC and I’m assuming they won’t cover it. [/quote]

Your cortisol is high? Like how high? I would see an endo.

Mounjaro has been fantastic for me. I lost 50lbs in about 1 year and continue to lose 2-3 lbs per month. I am only at 7.5 mg and have none of the weird side effects. My bad cholesterol dropped (familial hypercholesteremia dx) my pulse dropped from 94 to 74 (was never this low even when doing crossfit and weighing 30lbs less than I currently do), my triglycerides dropped from 100 to mid 60s, I have more consistent energy and do not get hangry, my bowel movements are normal (used to be mostly loose), my hair is growing even with the weight loss, etc.

Also my insurance, UHC, covers it. [/quote]
