Day 28…do I throw in the towel now?

I’m on day 28 of the 1.5 mg pill dose and the side effects still haven’t gone away. I thought I turned a corner at the beginning of week 3 but then the second half of week 3, I had bad nausea and fatigue/wooziness. Then at the beginning of week 4, I thought, again, I was turning a corner. I had three days without nausea but now it’s come back for the past 4 days. Today is particularly bad and Zofran doesn’t seem to be helping.

Earlier this week, I talked to my doctor who recommended I stay the course for another week or two, to see if the side effects quiet down. At this point, I can’t see how that’s going to happen, or whether I’ll even be able to move up to 4mg ever, with this kind of reaction.

Should I push my doctor and say, look, let’s switch course and try Zepbound or some alternative?
