Looking for community advice
Hello everyone! I’m hoping there’s somebody out there who has a similar situation to mine and I would love to know what you did!
I’ve been on zepbound for three months. Haven’t really seen much change. I took the 2.5 for one month and I’ve been on the 5 for two months now. For the first maybe three weeks I had some mild tummy discomfort for the first 24 to 48 hours after injection, but that stopped. However, recently these last three weeks have been awful. I’m talking two days after injection, just getting violently sick. I will spare you the details lol! At first, I thought that I had just gotten food poisoning. But after this last dose that I took I noticed the sulfur burps really really really bad but I didn’t throw up or anything. Then last night I woke up at 5 AM with just the worst pain in my stomach and lower abdomen. I don’t know why it was fine for a couple of weeks and then ramped up so much worse. Does it really make a difference if I inject into my stomach or my thigh? My plan is to stop taking it for two weeks, ask my doctor to put me back down on the 2.5, and only inject into my thigh. Would love to know everybody’s thoughts and feedback! And thanks so much for your help.
