MJ then Wegovy and back to MJ

I started taking MJ in March of last year and it was going brilliantly! I lost just under 5 stone…and then the price increase came in. My pharmacy switched me to Wegovy but I found that no use at all and stopped a few weeks ago.

I’d like to restart MJ but the prices scare me, especially as the doses rotate up. I was on 10mg before and the costs now are phenomenal.

MJ was working for me so I don’t know whether to take the hit and go back on it even though finances would be tight.

Has anyone else faced this decision?

I've switched to Wegovy and back to Mounjaro - I was on 15mg mounjaro, then went to 1.7 wegovy, and up to 2.4 wegovy. It didn't do anything at all for me (I put on 9lb in 2 months!) - happily I managed to get back on to 7.5 mounjaro via Lloyds pharmacy, just need to titrate up next month until it takes effect (originally I had no effect until 10mg). Yes it's more expensive, but my health is so important, I can't afford not to do it.
