First time splitting dose

I've been on tirzepitide 2.2 (13 units) for about 7 weeks now, and have had varying degrees of not feeling good on it. The first 2 or 3 days of the week, I have a terrible taste in my mouth, nausea (not terrible but definitely not feeling well), heartburn during the night, etc. I've had two weeks (not consecutive) where I felt okay and thought I was over the hump, but this last week was the worst, with three miserable days, two days where I felt good but food noise back, and now today, which is back to real life with appetite back, etc. I drink water, eat less than normal, eat early in the evening, etc. but nothing seems to be helping.

I reached out to Mochi, who suggested splitting the dose 4 days apart. They said usually things level out, but typically before now, and not with symptoms that are still so uncomfortable. I've lost about 11 lb., so I'm happy with that, but if it comes just because I'm too sick to eat, that's not a win.

Has anyone had experience with splitting the dose, and can you share how it went?
