Woman suffers ‘life-threatening bowel injury,’ will have diarrhea forever after using Ozempic: lawsuit

This story is as clear as mud. The article states that it's not even known if she was using Ozempic for diabetes or weight loss, how long she'd been on it or what dosage. It isn't clear if the injury is actually from Ozempic.

Gastroparesis is a known side effect of Ozempic, and can lead to bowel obstruction and bowel obstructions can kill - ask Lisa Marie Presley.

Typically when large bits of the colon are removed solid stool isn’t a thing anymore. Sometimes you have to get your anus permanently sealed up and poop in a bag attached to your stomach for the rest of your life.

But it’s probably better than losing weight via high fiber diet and enduring all that flatulence

F you. If it were that simple there wouldn’t be so many overweight people.

I disagree, kind of. Yes, PP is a bit flippant, but not wrong. With that said, it obviously isn't that easy for many people, for a wide variety of reasons. But it isn't because their bodies just act differently. And everybody here knows that. I am sympathetic, truly, because I struggle every day with my self-control. My sister was obese for over 30 years. At the age of 55, she "accidentally" started losing weight when she bought a second home at the beach and spent months there by herself without her husband and wound up skipping dinner often, and getting more exercise--mostly walking. She lost 20 lbs in 2 months, was thrilled that it happened, so made more changes to her diet and exercise. She has platuead after losing 60 pounds. She is still technically obese, but still, she did this with dietary changes, after struggling psychologically with food her whole life. I know it's just one anecdote, but there really is a way. It's just very very hard.

You are joking, right? Your sister was able to lose weight when she bought a beach house and didn't have other responsibilities so everyone should be able to do it? Maybe should write a book about how to lose weight while living alone at the beach. Rather than supporting the idea that anyone can do this, your story illustrates why most people under the normal stresses of life are likely to fail. We all have limited bandwidth to deal with our lives. I was a super thin 20-something, but back then, all I had to do was my job and take care of myself; the rest of my time could be devoted to a strict diet and hours of exercise daily. That's just not sustainable for most people, and it's not even realistic in the short term for the vast majority of people.

So you're confirming it's stress that is ldeaing to your obesity? A psychological issue. Eating right and exercising is in fact sustainable for most people. I work a full-time job and raised two children with severe learning disabilities with zero help, including from my husband. I woke up at 5:30 am every weekday to work out, then put dinner on the table every night. I had severe anxiety the whole time. Was it easy? No. Was it sustainable? Yes. It was the healthiest way for my family to thrive. Help me understand how a "strict diet" takes time? The only point about the beach house was that she felt no need to sit down to dinner every night because she was alone. Trust me, she is not devoting time to a "strict diet" or exercising. She just took in fewer calories and walked her dogs more at night.

Is Semaglutide Okay?
Ozempic Lawsuit

“People have taken legal action against the makers of Ozempic, one of the most popular diabetes and weight loss drugs on the market. This follows recent complaints from individuals who used this drug to manage Type 2 diabetes and promote weight loss. Some individuals we talked to complained of serious stomach complications resulting from regular use of this drug…. many other Ozempic lawsuits filed by people who have experienced the ….side effects or something similar.”

And people keep making fun of me and calling me gross because I have flatulence throughout the day which is perfectly normal and sign of a thriving gut microbiome. A thriving gut microbiome stimulates the natural production of GLP-1 with zero risk of gastroparesis.

It smells terrible, and makes others uncomfortable around you.

I think they will make everyone who uses them rebound the weight as SOON as the come off them.

I didn’t say it was simple. Our food system is full of poisonous sugar laden food substitutes, like Soylent that is intended to kill people over the long term and which is functioning exactly as designed.

You pay for the privilege of consuming it, you pay with the pain of the health conditions it causes in your poor beleaguered body and brain, you pay the doctor for the pleasure of being shamed and then directed to pay in perpetuity to Big Pharma for the drugs that will keep you alive by treating your symptoms - but no matter how much you pay, it is hard to get the time investment and honest messaging from anyone in the healthcare system about the right way to use the natural tools and foods that can cure your illnesses and put an end to your relationship with all those Big Pushers in your life.

I know how hard it is, have been battling for decades and tried EVERYTHING and just in this past year I am finally going in the right direction in a way that is totally sustainable without pain and constant food noise, but no it is not effortless and yes because I live in the same toxic environment you do where pushers are everywhere trying to sell me back into the addictive foods that will poison my gut liver and brain it is a constant battle and I have to cultivate coping mechanisms to fight addictive urges and until the food environment in our society changes that’s reality.

And yeah it takes sleeping right and stress management and I’m lucky it’s just me I’m sure it would be tough work to detox kids and a spouse too, but given the rate of prediabetes and emerging metabolic disorder in normal weight adults and children alike, it’s probably worth it to make a dent in the toxic amount of sugar your family is likely consuming on the regular

Added sugar is addictive and it is in nearly everything on grocery shelves and much that is in the dairy case and frozen food cases too. Watch the film Fed Up, it’s ten years old and totally accurate still except that the disease rates have skyrocketed that much more over another decade of the Big Food poisoning of America.

I mean I just got angry. They are stealing my life, just like they stole my mother’s life with their doctor recommended Winstons. So I said no and now I eat real food and I just don’t buy anyone saying they’re eating real food, high fiber and can’t lose weight. You can’t help but lose weight. I’m down 30, have stones more to go but slow and steady is how it piled on and I can take the time to do it right so my muscles stick around and my skin keeps pace as much as possible.

And people keep making fun of me and calling me gross because I have flatulence throughout the day which is perfectly normal and sign of a thriving gut microbiome. A thriving gut microbiome stimulates the natural production of GLP-1 with zero risk of gastroparesis.
