Well, that was fast. You know I’ll always be honest with you all, so here it goes…. I’m microdosing GLP1 but I might have to stop, and here’s why: First, the pros: * Contrary to my face (I have always had dramatic reactions) the shot is not painful. * After microdosing .5mg initially and now doing .25mg twice a week I can’t imagine doing the starting dose I was recommended of 2.5 mg. I have had a few side effects and I can’t image how sick I would feel at a significantly higher dose * My sleep is absolutely incredible. I’ve struggled with sleeping through the night for probably four years now and I sleep so hard and so soundly now that I’m upset I didn’t start this sooner for just the sleep aspect alone * I feel less inflamed. I can tell my body is still adjusting but after my first dose my scalp psoriasis cleared up completely (I always have sores on my scalp). When I delayed in taking my second shot, the psoriasis came back and it’s now mostly gone again. So, I can tell it’s directly related to the meds. * My period was less intense. I didn’t feel great but I wasn’t incapacitated and wallowing in bed for two days. TBD on that next month * The only gastric side effect is gas and after my first shot, I haven’t really been dealing with it nearly as much Now, the reason I am concerned.... I have been struggling with light sensitivity and my eyes ache at the end of the day. If I edit a video and then look into the distance, my vision has trouble focusing. It’s not blurriness but there is a sensitivity that I didn’t have before. I have read that this could be something to do with your blood sugar fluctuating. However, my diet hasn’t really changed at all since starting this. It has been pretty difficult to manage as I have to lay down and put a heat compress on my eyes several times a day to relieve the aches and I can’t look at my phone or computer for very long. Before this, I always had a lot of inflammation in my eyes due to my psoriatic arthritis generally, so maybe it’s because of that, but it does have me concerned and I am going to have to weigh whether or not it’s worth continuing. If anyone has experienced any of these symptoms, let me know.
