Is anyone autistic here on mounjaro?

I get sick on both hormonal contraception, and I haven’t been able to stop throwing up four days later after starting mounjaro. I heard that autistic people (I am autistic) can have a more sensitive nervous system that could cause this.

if you are autistic did you get really sick on it?

I’m autistic and I haven’t been sick with Mounjaro. I actually thought I would be as I’m a very sicky person and lots of medication makes me sick. But fortunately for me I’ve been fine

I'm autistic. I started on a half dose, 1.25mg, by counting clicks and worked up gradually from there. (It wasn't because I'm autistic though, was just worried I'd get bad side effects, and keen to find the lowest effective dose for me).

I’m autistic and have been on it, 2.5mg, For 7 months. I have been incredibly fortunate side effect wise

Sounds like the extreme sickness is unrelated to the autism then, thanks everyone x
