Imodium and look closely at what your eating particularly carbs and sugar, just stick to protein and veggies and occasional rice pasta etc. plenty water and think about adding an electrolyte. You might need to go back down to 2.5 or skip a week to recover and go back to 2.5 and try to increase your dose at a later date of suppression goes. How long did you stay on 2.5 and were you seeing suppression and losses? I stayed in 2.5 for a long time as it was plenty for me for months.

Thankyou for your reply. I had some Imodium, toast and plenty water.
I have some electrolytes so I will have one now.
since I jabbed last Sunday, my suppression has been extremely high. I’ve only been managing 800-1100 cals a day. Eggs, avocado, sourdough, I’ve tried to eat as clean as possible, I stay away from grease!
I was on 2.5mg for 12 weeks, no side effects, suppression got up and left. I thought 3.75mg would be a perfect middle ground, didn’t realise it was a ‘high’ dose compared to the 5mg. I think I’m going to go back down, maybe not jab this week as side effects and suppression is still very much there x
