Bad medication side affects

Hi all

I've been taking mounjaro (once a week weight loss injection very similar to ozempic, wegovy etc)

I took my first dose on Tuesday 7th May and the first week was absolutely fine - abit of nausea but nothing too bad

But ever since I took my second dose on Tuesday 14th, I am having the worst symptoms now. I have that classic 'eggy taste' in my mouth, I can barley even drink water because I feel so full 24/7, my stomach is in so much pain I cannot stop going to the toilet.

If anyone had bad side effects from weight loss injections, how long does it take to wear off? 😔

I think it goes without saying that I won't be taking the 3rd week. God I feel so awful

Sorry I have no advice. Just placemarking as I took my first dose today.

I’ve had a bit of boating but no other symptoms. I’m not feeling as hungry or eating as much as usual though.

I stopped after week 2 (2 weeks ago) as felt my stomach was in knots and felt constant thirst and nausea. Still feels knotty and nearly vommed yesterday.
waste of money and I think we’ll find these drugs won’t stand the test of time in terms of health outcomes
