8.75mg?

[ICriedAllTheWayToTheChipShop]

I have recently come down from a 10mg pen back to 7.5mg because I had awful gastric side effects and could barely eat anything on the 10mg. The problem is, I don't have very good suppression on 7.5mg, which was why I moved up in the first place. I was eyeing up the Easter eggs in Morrisons today and that's the first time I've even thought about chocolate since starting MJ four months ago! So what I was thinking of doing is getting a 10mg pen again next time but just having 8.75mg doses from it. I guess that would be about 52 clicks or something? Has anyone else tried this and found it effective? It seems such a small increment that I feel like it might not make much difference, but is it worth trying?

I had read that lots of people get bad side effects going from 2.5mg to 5mg so I went up by going up in .5 mg jumps e.g. 3mg for a couple of weeks then moving up again.

I would recommend going up gradually as your body can adjust. My husband went straight from 2.5mg to 5mg and has been very sick over 2 injections weeks and had to pause treatment and will restart on 2.5 and go up gradually too.

I have to go up gradually. I’m a super responder I think. At the moment I’m on 8.33 and will stay on that for a while probably.

I haven't really been that sensitive to it up until now, it took me by surprise that there was such a big difference between 7.5mg and 10mg. I've only ever had moderate suppression and satiety - although it's worked well enough for me to lose consistently - but it's definitely started to lose its efficacy over the last couple of weeks. I think I will try 8.75mg and see how it goes.

I massively struggled on 10, it made me feel so sick and anxious. So I'm back down to 7.5 and the loss has slowed right down but I haven't gained any, which I will take for now.
The negative side effects weren't worth it for me.
