Where does the fat go?

Update: thank you to all who have been kind and answered except for Accurate-Tension-599–who felt the need to be rude about it.

I appreciate you 🫶

The doctor didn’t say and I forgot to ask. Literally I didn’t know it was that simple. Thank you!!

I just got prescribed this but waiting for it to go through prior auth.

Where does our fat go when we take this medication? I have 37% body fat and I’m hoping to workout to help with the loose skin.

I’m excited for my kidney health to get better while using this.

Blood sugar drops and not diabetic with IGAN.

Can someone explain why my blood sugar drops with igan although I am not diabetic? I’m struggling with energy levels. I’ll eat and then get so sleepy I end up napping. Even eating healthier meals and 1 small itty bitty toddler size ice cream puts me to sleep.

I feel like it’s gotten worse since I’ve gotten diagnosed in April and started medication. Currently on jardiance 10 mg and Filspari 200 mg (finally tolerating).

I am overweight though 165 lbs since I have been consistently taking Filspari. Last week I was 160 lbs. I am holding more bloat in my stomach.

Maybe I’m fat an that’s what is causing my blood sugar to drop. I am not prediabetic either. I don’t know if I bring it up to neph or pcp or both. I see them soon though so that’s a positive.

3 YO 95% g tube fed only for 2 years now achy recently

I was told she’s going through growing pains at 2.5 yo.

She’s on Kate farms blended diet.

It started with feet pain and now her back gets achy… shoulders….feet. She cries at night from pain but wakes up fine. It’s always around bed time or nap time.

She has an appt soon so I’ll ask again both pcp and Gi.

Have you experienced this with your feeding tube child?

Filspari new taker

Normal for bloating to happen a few hours after starting it? And will it go away? Just started first dose and my stomach is so stretched 😔
