For those thinking of playing with powerful drugs just because…

At work I tell people every day… powerful drugs have powerful consequences. Sometimes good. Sometimes bad. Sometimes both.

They took blockbuster drugs for weight loss and diabetes. Now their stomachs are paralyzed | CNN

Doctors say more cases of people with stomach paralysis after taking popular drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy are coming to light.

Title is a little click bait ish. I’ll give you that. Still good to keep in the back of your mind for those considering!

WOW!

Very good article and great advice.

More of my thoughts to follow.

“cyclic vomiting syndrome” I don’t think I want that, ever.
Effective at keeping the weight off apparently

 

[John]

Wow cyclic vomiting,that’s fuckin great.

 

[Cluster]

Haha

 

[Poppy]

Agreed

 

[Neuro]

Haha at no point did I know what was coming next in this article but it kept getting worse.

My opinion only… everyone over the age of 18 is supposed to have the ability to make decisions concerning their own health and well being…with reasonable faculties present.

Being under a docs “supervision” is “supposed” to be a fail safe. We all know that many docs aren’t worth a crap along with big pharma $$$$.

I also think that considering if the “juice is worth the squeeze” has got to be taken into account. Think with your head not your heart.

For the record.

I’ve been on ozempic for one year this month. I’ve experienced some discomfort in my stomach… sometimes worse than others but no vomiting.

For once, I wish the side effects would include things like:

“Moments of Transcendence” or “Youthful Skin” maybe “Enlarged Penis” or “Cyclical bounds of Uncontrolled Joy”

You’ve also seen massive success with your a1c. I would say given mild discomfort… it’s well worth it for you.

 

[Neuro]

if we can come up with the drug we would be so filthy rich.

 

[Poppy]

Oh yeah… for me for the moment…SO FAR…the juice is worth the squeeze.

 

[Neuro]

As long as you keep your assessments honest you will stay in a good place.

 

[John]

I could go for some drugs right now

 

[Poppy]

One thing I neglected to mention in the ozempic files thread… monitoring bowel movements. Should be done anyways imo but with something strong like oz… my doc reiterated it. I do get a touch of constipation occasionally. For me that’s one bm a day.
