Joint pain on Wegovy

[Twodogsisbetterthanone]

I’m really struggling here. Started Wegovy beginning of April, have lost 3.5 stone. Target is 5 stone total loss so not far to go. I have osteoarthritis, in my spine mainly, was diagnosed in my 20s. My lower back and hips historically is bad when I’m heavier, or when I don’t exercise. My neck arthritis is bad all the time.

Anyway, since starting the 1.7 dose two months ago, I’m getting no sleep because of my back and hips. Painkillers aren’t touching it, neither is my trusty heat pad. I’m ok when I’m up and moving, it’s just sleeping that starts it off. I work 12 hours a day, I need my sleep.

Starting to think I was better off fat. Has anyone else had the same?

I'm on mounjaro and I had really bad hip and thigh pain over a few months, it was so bad especially at night that I couldn't sleep and I was in tears a few time. I also noticed it when I was sat at work but it usually coincided with the end of my period and would last approx 3-5 days then go then come back. I had to take painkillers as it was pretty bad.
This has all gone and ive not had it in the last few months thankfully, and not sure what caused it. Are you taking vitamins? You may have a deficiency.
It could also be a change needed in sleep position with the weight loss. I sleep on side or front with legs separate, bent at knee one in front of the other.
