Anyone else use Mounjaro? It’s an amazing drug but makes me obsessed with the most random foods. My latest kick is watermelon. It’s the only thing I want to eat. It’s odd.
@Olivecatto Naw, I don't trust that stuff.
@Olivecatto To be clear, I'm not a doctor. I'm just a suspicious sort of person. : )
@AskTheDevil Right on. It’s a diabetic medication and I find it really effective
@AskTheDevil I usually do to. I’m glad I found this as well. I work but a pharmacy they are drug people that well take anything for any minor inconvenience and it’s sad to watch. And people that expect the med to do all them without making changes. It takes it all.
@Olivecatto Indeed. It's like having to learn to drive your pancreas!
@AskTheDevil that’s a good way to put it.
@Olivecatto Apparently, even I have a shoulder devil, because there's always this voice that says "let other people try the potion and see what it does to them first."
I'm sorry. I am really glad there's stuff that actually does something now.
For a while, we were given stuff that was like Ïf you take this, you'll fall down stairs and throw up a lot and start gambling, but it reduces your sugar by 1%"!
@AskTheDevil oh for sure there’s so much stuff that the side effects are worse than the disease itself. This truly is a game changer. It’s a GLP and a GIP.
@Olivecatto I'll wait and see what happens to everyone else for a while (tee hee), then ask my doctor.
; )
Thank you for sharing your experience with it!
@AskTheDevil I really would keep an eye on it. It’s made it so I am off my blood pressure and other meds. Its hard to get right now though so definitely wait until supply can pace demand
@Olivecatto Hmm. I'll keep it in mind. I knew I was going to have to deal with diabetes, so I caught it early. I've been maintaining rather well for a bit, but if that changes, I'll remember. Thanks!
@Olivecatto Good to hear! Everyone's diabetes seems like it's kinda custom for them. A diet that works for one of us is just blech for someone else. Some people respond really well to some medicines, too!
I usually fall into the "less than x% of people deveop a second evil head" category, unfortunately.
