Just musing, had a talk about finances last night, we are both wanting to retire in 2 years time, at 60, or in our 60th year, (we’re both the same age). We have plans that mainly involve travelling, 3 months on the road in Europe (thanks brexit 🤬) 3 months back in the uk and we are saving hard to do this. I am going to continue with Mounjaro but will buy my last pen in January, take the required 5 week break then consider wegovy for maintenance, if I stick with the same supplier hopefully the switch will be easier. That gives me 5 months, I could feel myself spiralling again on Friday/Saturday with worry.
The order I placed with a previous supplier on Thursday is still pending and they are showing as out of stock now so I doubt it’ll go through. All I’ve had is an email saying they are dealing with a large volume of orders, I can’t place an order with swift doctor until the 19th and they are also showing as out of stock. I have a spare pen so am ok until the end of September so will be paying the higher price for 15mg for four months only.
Before all this came to light I’d been thinking about how it would feel when I start to titrate down to a lower dose and was feeling quite calm and confident about it, funny how our thought processes change in the blink of an eye.
sorry for waffling!
