what changed for me between week 55 and week 9

Discussion Clean Column ×4 Receipts ×3

Been lurking in c/progresspics for about 14 months and finally have something worth posting.

Short version: week 90, 0.25mg, and heart rate is the bit I still cannot get a straight answer on. I have read the wiki, I have read the last 29 threads, and the answers split roughly down the middle.

What I actually want to know is whether the people saying it does not matter have measured it, or whether it is just repeated confidently. Happy to be told I am overthinking this — I probably am — but I would rather overthink it now than at week 96.

week 91 and the reflux is finally getting better

Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.

Water content matters more than people think. If a vial is carrying residual moisture, your "10mg" is not 10mg of peptide.

This is an urgent-care question wearing a forum question's clothes. Please contact a clinician rather than waiting for replies.

Same experience. Week 30 and it simply stopped. I know that is not useful information but it is what happened.

nausea on day 2 is normal, nausea after week 85 is worth checking

constipation is real, boring, and fixable

sulphur burps are disgusting but not dangerous, 22 weeks and they stopped

u/diego_sorensen79 points·2 years ago

This is correct. The reflux is horrible for three weeks and then just ends.

u/graph_it_gary20 points·2 years ago

Strongly agree. Describe your dose, your week number, and your titration speed or nobody can help.

the food-noise thing stops around week 16 for most people

The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.

early fullness at 1.0mg is different from 0.5mg

Are you on a pen or research vial? The formulation changes the profile.

resting heart rate moved up 20 bpm and settled back down when I stopped escalating

Yeah, the the food-noise thing hit on day 2 for me too, not day 1.

Has anything else changed? Sleep, food, protein, anything?

Disagree on that part. 95.1% and 97.6% on the same vial is normal.

Disagree on that part. 97.4% and 98.9% on the same vial is normal.

Not convinced. The evidence does not support that reading.

About c/sideeffects

Side-effect experience and management, with a strong bias toward the ones that are common and boring (nausea, constipation, reflux, fatigue, sulphur burps) and a hard line on the ones that are not (severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, jaundice, vision changes). This community is not a substitute for urgent care and the mods will say so bluntly.

c/sideeffects rules
  1. Severe or escalating abdominal pain is an urgent-care question, not a forum question. We will lock those threads with a pointer to help.
  2. Describe your dose, your week number and your titration speed — otherwise nobody can help.
  3. No diagnosing strangers. Share what happened to you.
  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
  8. No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
  9. Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.
