Ozempic - week 9
Started 1mg on Saturday. Only have enough meds for two more weeks. Waiting for my doc to change my Rx to the 4mg pen. Happily am (for now) grandfathered into a Canadian pharmacy to continue being able to order. Canada has effectively issued a temp freeze on all new patients, largely as a result of an unethical doctor in…

Ozempic - week 6
I stuck with the manufacturer's recommendation and did four weeks at .25mg. I'm now on my second week at .5mg. Down 10 pounds, woot!!

Can't tolerate big multivitamins- something in multivitamins has always (even pre-VSG) made me gag and shudder. It's bad enough trying to down 6 horse pills a day for calcium (I…

Lets Talk Toots (!@#$%)
Not to be crass, but it's all about gas. Mine has been bad since VSG. I mean: BAD. I've tried various OTC pills, tried to associate it to particular foods (eggs? no. probiotics? no.), even discussed with my surgeon's associate at my 6 month and 12 month visits. Her cut: "Not a reported side effect of VSG." But I'm telling…
