Wegovy - scared myself with possible side effect

I did 6 weeks of Wegovy starting from lowest dose. I felt great but developed an ache under left rib and was really worried about pancreatitis. Went for scans, blood tests etc. am but was all clear. The pain gradually went away after I came off it. Asked doctor if I could continue and he said there was no reason not to as everything looked normal. I'm in two minds though. Has anyone else experienced this type of side effect?

I had a really uncomfortable ache under my left rib right at the bottom, Felt like I had something the size of a fist pressing from underneath! Turns out it was trapped wind 🙈 (I’d only been on MJ for a week) I was still worried though and if it had lasted more than a few days I would have visited my GP

I had the same, plus vomiting

not eating anything fatty or spicy, and eating v v small portions, helped. However, I switched to Mounjaro and have no side effects now - though I am still keeping away from fatty and spicy food so that might be why

@Jonas25 go with Mounjaro. Side effects are less than Wegovy
