Random headaches

Hi,

I’m currently on week 3 of Mounjaro 2.5mg and since starting I’ve noticed random headaches that I didn’t have before.

They’re quite strange, I’ll suddenly get around one or 2–3 throbbing/ pulsing aches around my temples and the front/top of my head near my hairline, then it completely disappears. It happens randomly throughout the day and has been on and off for the last few days. It even happens when I’m laying down or moving around too.

I’m drinking water up to 1-2litres a day and also other drinks too and I haven’t noticed any other concerning symptoms. I’ve also been doing HIIT, so I’m making sure I’m eating and hydrating enough so I don’t think it’s from dehydration.

Has anyone else experienced this type of brief, pulsing headache on Mounjaro, particularly during the first few weeks? If so, did it eventually settle down?

2.5mg for 8 weeks

I’m just coming to the end of my first 4 weeks of 2.5mg and I had my second consultation today and I was told they are going to leave me on 2.5mg again for another 4 weeks since I responded so well to it.

I did tell them that food noise does start to creep in 2 days before my injection and it takes another day for the suppression to kick back in again after I inject. I thought they would have put me on 5mg.

Has anyone else been prescribed 2.5mg again for their second round and does the appetite suppression remain?

Sudden burst of energy

Has anyone felt a sudden bust of energy since starting Mounjero? Iv only done two injections so far and for 3 days last week I went on a cleaning marathon in my home, scrubbing floors and windows etc. Before I use to procrastinate cleaning! According to google, this isn’t suppose to be a side effect of Mounjero so now I’m wondering if maybe I had low blood sugar or insulin resilient and Mounjero has levelled it out?

Advise please

Advise needed - I done my second injection of 2.5 today and when I was preparing to inject I primed by clicking twice and a drop came out of the top. I then clicked it till it went to 1 and then injected it as normal. I forgot to stay pressing after it went to 0 for a further five seconds but I instead had it held in for five seconds. I noticed when I took the needle back out that there was a puddle on the insertion site, I just rubbed it in to my skin but I was surprised because it was bigger than the amount that came out when I primed.

Is this normal or did I mess up some way? When injecting I had it pressed in and not at an angle and this didn’t happen the first dose either. I’m also not experiencing tiredness and immediate appetite suppression like on the first dose either.

It’s now the next day and I feel no different to before the second injection.

Irish law graduate considering the SQE route – a few questions

Hi everyone,

I know this was probably asked half a dozen times before but I’m hoping someone who has gone through this route (or looked into it) can help.

I graduated with an Irish law degree in 2021/2022 and I have been working as a corporate paralegal in Ireland for over four years. I’m now considering qualifying as a solicitor in England & Wales through the SQE route and then, if possible, transferring back to practise in Ireland. However, I have a few questions:

Am I eligible to sit the SQE with an Irish law degree, or do I need to complete any conversion course first? From what I could find I don’t think I do?

Has anyone had their Irish paralegal experience recognised as Qualifying Work Experience (QWE)?

Which SQE prep provider would you recommend (BARBRI, QLTS School, University of Law, BPP, etc.)? I am leaning towards QLTS School myself and I would be interested in hearing others reviews on this provider.

If I qualify in England & Wales, what was the process like for being admitted as a solicitor in Ireland? Primarily the transfer exam.

I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has taken this route or has first-hand experience.

Thanks!

Have I been scammed by an Etsy Witch?

Hi, I came across an Etsy Witch who said they would do a Bundle of MaxPower, Aura Cleaning and protection from the evil eye, they said I could also add in a custom ritual as well and I added a weight loss ritual.

She said she will send photo evidence of the ritual and this is what she sent, I blurred my name out on this. I don’t know, I kinda thought there would be more going on? I feel like this is a set up photo? The fake looking diamonds kinda done it for me

First Dream of My Soul Dog 6 Months After His Passing – Could This Have Been a Visitation?

I’m looking for spiritual or psychic perspectives on a dream I had this morning about my dog who passed away at Christmas.

For some context, he was my soul dog and the loss has been devastating. I’ve thought about him every day since he passed, but this is the first dream I’ve ever had of him in the six months since his death.

After my partner left for work this morning, I went back to sleep. In the dream, I found myself in a beautiful place. There was a cobbled stone bridle path with meadows on either side. The weather was glorious, sunny, and peaceful, almost like late morning. The path was very steep and went up a hill so high that I couldn’t see what was beyond the top.

I remember seeing horses peacefully eating in their pens that appeared to be inside a barn. One horse in particular stood out to me - a black horse that was slightly turned and seemed to be looking in my direction while munching. The entire place felt incredibly calm, loving, and safe.

Then suddenly I was hugging my dog. I could actually feel his weight in my arms. I could feel his freshly groomed coat, smell him, and feel his little wet face nuzzling into my neck leaving it cold and wet but I didn’t mind. It felt real in that moment. I remember not wanting the moment to end.

I think I partially woke up right then and then drifted back into sleep. I remember trying to get back to that place and find him again, but the dream changed completely. Although the setting looked somewhat similar, it felt fearful instead of peaceful. A group of armed masked men appeared like they were from Grand Theft Auto while I was walking around and seemed to target me then. I ran away, found a railway track, and hid in an abandoned train carriage. The men found me and jumped into the carriage shouting aggressively, and then I woke up.

As the day has gone on, I’ve remembered less and less of the first part of the dream. I can’t even clearly picture my dog’s face anymore from the dream, even though I still vaguely remember holding him for a moment, feeling his coat, his weight, and smelling him.

What makes me question it is that I’ve been grieving him deeply for six months and this is the very first dream I’ve had of him. If it was simply my grief, why did it take so long to happen?

For those who believe in visitation dreams or spiritual experiences, does this sound like it could have been a visitation, or was it more likely just a lucid dream? I’d be interested to hear your interpretations.
