Pinned 1.5 mg 5 days ago, been waking up every night sick to my stomach since
I (20F) started reta almost 3 weeks ago. I started off with pinning .5 mg week one, 1 mg week two, and most recently 1.5 mg on week three. that night after pinning 1.5 I woke up in the middle of the night sick to my stomach and spent an hour over the toilet shivering having hot flashes and dry heaving. I ended up not actually throwing up though. Every night since then, I’ve been waking up in the middle of the night feeling like I am about to throw up and spending an hour in the bathroom, shivering and having hot flashes.
during the day isn’t much better I have mild nausea each day and have only been able to eat maybe 1 to 2 very small snack snacks a day. I don’t think I’ve been able to consume more than 500 to 600 cal each day.
important things to note: I have been able to drink and keep liquids down just fine and haven’t actually thrown up.
I am supposed to pin 2 mg the day after tomorrow, but I am considering either keeping the dose the same as last week, titrating down a bit, or even just not taking the dose at all.
what is happening to me?
