Not sure what im looking for.. advice, stories, or here to vent. I feel everyone here may know how I am feeling now.

Note: I'm 47, total hysterectomy inc ovaries (June 2,2025) so im in full menopause. No HRT. On 12.5 of Mounjaro for over a yr.

Back story: It's Dr A's office and Dr R was the one I mainly seen for the last 4yrs. Dr R was the one who got me on Mounjaro 3yrs ago for my diabetes and the weightloss was just a bonus. Nothing else was working. My A1C when I started MJ was 11 and is now down to 5.4. Lost 60lbs and then held steady at 275 for over a yr.

Last appt, (3mo ago), we found out Dr R was no longer practicing at this office, so I had to revert back to seeing Dr A while ive always disliked the care I received when I first started going there when I seen her.

Now onto the recent visit 2 days ago with Dr A. She says she is taking me off MJ because I gained 4lbs since last appt from 3 months ago. "Since you're gaining weight on it then its not working". Mind you its the best for my a1c and cut out food noise. It was working.

Not only that, she's wanting me back to meds that never worked for my A1c and keeps pushing atorvanstatin when all my levels are good. Even Dr R kept asking if I was taking anything for cholesterol cause my numbers were always good.. (I wasn't).

I honestly think she doesn't know why I was originally on MJ and truely thought it was for weightloss only, when that is not the case. She wasnt even going to put me on anything for diabetes until my husband asked what she was going to do for my diabetes ..

Then she asked why I wasnt on Metformin, I had to tell her it didnt work and made me extremely ill🤦‍♀️. So all she did was raise my farxiga that was for something else originally.. and suggest I have the surgery.

Im also thinking she didnt like how I went to see Dr R instead of her, so now she's reversing everything that he did for me.

Thank you for reading. Im so stressed and down. Looking for new dr but whos to say they'll put me back on Mounjaro..
