Hi all ,
long story but I'm menopausal and I have disabilities which affect mobility. In the last year I've gone from size 10-12 to a 16. I watch what I eat and am very tiny (not a teeny tiny troll) 🙄 but am only five feet so these extra stone and dress sizes really add up and are hugely impacting on my chronic pain and making my mobility worse.
GP says it's par for the course to have weight gain with my age, pain and fatigue but it's really bringing me down. I haven't been this big since pregnancy and became completely disabled in pregnancy partly due to the weight gain.
I have heard / read so much about saxenda and am very clear on the side effects so not here to discuss the dangers. I've taken so many different pharmaceuticals over the last thirty odd years I've probably had every side effect known to woman.
I'm seriously desperate, I can't go on like this.
I'm not rich as a single mum and only work part time due to my health.
Anyone who has used sandexa please can you share your experience and also if you don't mind, please can you advise me on the cheapest but safest supplier.
Everywhere I've looked seems to advertise the amounts, dosage etc differently and I'm a bit overwhelmed trying to work it out

I've seen Lloyds chemist do it but it seems to be the most expensive on the market
