Mounjaro side effects

Hi

i I am on week 4, 5mg Mounjaro. Have lost well/consistent, was ready to increase the dose up from 2.5mg and have felt generally ok on the injections. However for the past 3 weeks two days after injection I have had diarrhoea, nothing too explosive but has had me up in the night. Also have sulphur burps the first day and I have no idea how to manage this symptom. One or two days of symptoms then ok afterwards. Anyone else had side effects? Has it stopped you taking the medication? Or made you drop back down to a lower dose? I am wondering if i stick with 5mg for the next pen.

Some people get an allergic response, but I don't think this would look like chickenpox, more like a rash or hives.
